        The true story of Hannah Beswick, the Manchester Mummy

        by Hannah Priest

        The macabre tale of an eighteenth-century woman immortalised in folklore as the 'Manchester Mummy'. In 1835, the Manchester Natural History Society opened the doors of its museum. Taking pride of place in its collection were three mummies: one was Egyptian, one was Peruvian and one was a woman from Cheetham Hill. This is the first time the true story of Hannah Beswick, the so-called 'Manchester Mummy', has been told. Over the years, explanations for the Manchester Mummy have ranged from the chilling - Hannah's fear of being buried alive - to the downright bizarre - the legend of her buried gold - but the truth is more complex. Exploring this fascinating episode from museum history, Unburied sheds light on the Victorian turn to the macabre and changing attitudes to the display of human remains. It debunks the legends and asks what Hannah Beswick can tell us about death and dying, mummies and museums.

        by Michael Hierholzer, Jean-Christophe Ammann

        Die Kunst fühlt sich, anders als die Philosophie, keinem Begründungszwang unterworfen. Sie argumentiert nicht, sondern behauptet, schert sich nicht um Wahrheit, sondern allenfalls um Wahrnehmung. Die Gedanken, die in die Kunst eingehen und sie manchmal dominieren, sind letztlich an kein System gebunden.

        Heimat und Exil

        Emigration der deutschen Juden nach 1933

        by Stiftung Jüdisches Museum Berlin, Stiftung Haus der Geschichte der Bundesrepublik Deutschland

        Flucht, Vertreibung und Neuanfang der deutschen Juden nach 1933 sind das Thema einer großen Ausstellung des Jüdischen Museums Berlin in Kooperation mit dem Haus der Geschichte in Bonn. Erstmals wird der erzwungene Exodus der deutschen Juden in weltweit über hundert Länder in einer Gesamtschau vor Augen geführt. Der reich illustrierte Begleitband ist wie die Ausstellung biographisch ausgerichtet. Dokumentiert werden vielfältige Flucht- und Lebenswege, die von Deutschland aus bis nach Shanghai oder in die Dominikanische Republik führten und, nach 1945, in einzelnen Fällen auch wieder zurück. Wo konnten die Emigranten unter welchen Bedingungen Zuflucht finden? Wie hat sich ihr Leben in den Zufluchtsländern gestaltet? Unterschiedliche Facetten der Exilerfahrung sowie der emotionalen und geographischen Verortung von »Heimat« werden in den Blick genommen. Zudem wird in einem gesonderten Teil jedes der über hundert Transit- und Aufnahmeländer aus der Perspektive der Emigranten vorgestellt – dieser historische Atlas eröffnet einen einzigartigen Zugang zu der vor über siebzig Jahren sich begründenden deutsch-jüdischen Diaspora in aller Welt.

        Curating empire

        Museums and the British imperial experience

        by Sarah Longair, John McAleer

        Curating empire explores the diverse roles played by museums and their curators in moulding and representing the British imperial experience. This collection demonstrates how individuals, their curatorial practices, and intellectual and political agendas influenced the development of a variety of museums across the globe. Taken together, these contributions suggest that museums are not just sites for accessing history but need to be considered as historical sites of significance in themselves. Individual essays examine the work of curators in museums in Britain and the colonies, the historical display and interpretation of empire in Britain, and the establishment of 'museum networks' in the British imperial context. Curating empire sheds new light on the relationship between museums, as repositories for objects and cultural institutions for conveying knowledge, and the politics of culture and the formation of identities throughout the British Empire.

        Art, museums and touch

        by Fiona Candlin, Amelia Jones, Marsha Meskimmon

        Art, museums and touch examines conceptions and uses of touch within arts museums and art history. Candlin deftly weaves archival material and contemporary museology together with government policy and art practice to question the foundations of modern art history, museums as sites of visual learning, and the association of touch with female identity and sexuality. This remarkable study presents a challenging riposte to museology and art history that privileges visual experience. Candlin demonstrates that touch was, and still is, crucially important to museums and art history. At the same time she contests the recent characterisation of touch as an accessible and inclusive way of engaging with museum collections, and argues against prevalent ideas of touch as an unmediated and uncomplicated mode of learning. An original and wide-ranging enquiry, this book is essential reading for scholars and students of museum studies, art history, visual culture, disability, and for anyone interested in the cultural construction of the senses. ;

        Perspectives on military collections and the British empire

        by Henrietta Lidchi, Stuart Allan

        At a time of heightened international interest in the colonial dimensions of museum collections, Dividing the Spoils provides new perspectives on the motivations and circumstances whereby collections were appropriated and acquired during colonial military service. Combining approaches from the fields of material anthropology, imperial and military history, this book argues for a deeper examination of these collections within a range of intercultural histories that include alliance, diplomacy, curiosity and enquiry, as well as expropriation and cultural hegemony. As museums across Europe reckon with the post-colonial legacies of their collections, Dividing the Spoils explores how the amassing of objects was understood and governed in British military culture, and considers how objects functioned in museum collections thereafter, suggesting new avenues for sustained investigation in a controversial, contested field.
