{"product_id":"from-antiquities-to-heritage-anne-eriksen-9781782382980","title":"From Antiquities to Heritage: Transformations of Cultural Memory","description":"\u003cp\u003e Eighteenth-century gentleman scholars collected antiquities. Nineteenth-century nation states built museums to preserve their historical monuments. In the present world, heritage is a global concern as well as an issue of identity politics. What does it mean when runic stones or medieval churches are transformed from antiquities to monuments to heritage sites? This book argues that the transformations concern more than words alone: They reflect fundamental changes in the way we experience the past, and the way historical objects are assigned meaning and value in the present. This book presents a series of cases from Norwegian culture to explore how historical objects and sites have changed in meaning over time. It contributes to the contemporary debates over collective memory and cultural heritage as well to our knowledge about early modern antiquarianism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anne Eriksen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1782382984\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781782382980\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 188\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Library Binding\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Anne Eriksen","offers":[{"title":"Library Binding","offer_id":48088777851135,"sku":"9781782382980","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e16632fb-fd51-4ffc-bc80-57ef68dedb68.jpg?v=1769106556","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-antiquities-to-heritage-anne-eriksen-9781782382980","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
