Abstract: |
Includes the following four papers: Chris Scarre (pp 11-18), 'The Western world view in archaeological atlases' - six atlases published from 1974 reveal the 'cultural lenses' used by European scholars and public to view the world, whether from 'Eurocentricity' or sheer marketability and availability of material. Peter V Addyman (257{i4) discusses 'Reconstruction as interpretation: the example of the Jorvik Viking Centre, York' (on accepting the challenge of presenting Viking daily life to the general public). Nicholas P Stanley Price (284-90) discusses 'Conservation and information in the display of prehistoric sites' and David Lowenthal (302-14) drawing 'Conclusion: archaeologlsts and others' discusses contrasting British and American views of the past, Polish and Greek politics of history, and restitution of cultural property. |
