Abstract
Being an institution involved in the construction of national and local narratives and identities, the museum is — has always been and, in all likelihood, will always be — a stage where conflictual, contested and contentious discourses are performed. The essay explores the various facets of this topic, related to the nature of peculiar collections, to the overtones of curatorial policies and practices, and to the complex implications of archival and display strategies.File in questo prodotto:
