Description

Explore the deep connections between material culture and human experience with Narrating Objects, Collecting Stories: Essays in Honour of Professor Susan M. Pearce. Published by Routledge, this wide-ranging collection of essays offers a detailed look at the stories told by objects and the people who choose to collect them. This volume brings together an international and interdisciplinary group of authors to examine objects and collecting practices across various historical, social, and institutional contexts. Readers will gain insight into the meanings and values assigned to objects, as well as the complex processes and implications of collecting. The text investigates how objects and collectors become part of social relations and how they relate to value and change. By looking at object biographies and the sometimes conflicting nature of these relationships, this book provides a comprehensive perspective for anyone interested in museum studies, material culture, and the social life of things.
