With the development of institutions displaying natural science,
history, and art in the late 19th century came the debates over the
role of these museum in society. This anthology collects 50 of the
most important writings on museum philosophy dating from this
formative period, written by the many of the American and European
founders of the field. Genoways and Andrei contextualize these
pieces with a series of introductions showing how the museum field
developed within the social environment of the era. For those
interested in museum history and philosophy or cultural history,
this is an essential resource.
