The abstract describing the content of the publication or report
Abstract:
The author examines changing attitudes towards the evidence of the past, which, he argues, have resulted in a free-floating past, unlocated in place or time. He attempts to disentangle some of the complex influences involved in how the stories told about a past `other' are chose, and by whom. It is suggested that attempts to re-anchor the past through reference to an intelligible present, whether by performance or commercial endeavour, deserve to be examined with some degree of skepticism.
