{"product_id":"material-cultures-of-archiving-markus-friedrich-9783111655475","title":"Material Cultures of Archiving: An Introduction to a Global and Historical Practice","description":"The history of archiving and record-keeping has recently attracted a lot of attention, however, scholarship on the physical and spatial aspects of that history are still scant. Hence, the volume foregrounds the material aspect of record-keeping and highlights the object-nature of archiving. Chapters on archive-related document preparation and the composition of archivable records are followed by explorations of storage containers, furniture, and spaces.The volume is cross-cultural in nature, highlighting the materiality of record-keeping practices as a prime entry point for a globally comparative history of archiving. Exploring the rich traditions of record-keeping practices and facilities makes visible previously underappreciated parallels and unique specifics of various archival cultures from around the globe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Markus Friedrich\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3111655474\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783111655475\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/14\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Markus Friedrich","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48241648828671,"sku":"9783111655475","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b5eb4592-a7e9-49f8-96a2-bc2d530e5801.jpg?v=1772655382","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/material-cultures-of-archiving-markus-friedrich-9783111655475","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
