Fitful Histories and Unruly Publics re-examines the relationship
between Eurasia's past and its present by interrogating the social
construction of time and the archaeological production of culture.
Traditionally, archaeological research in Eurasia has focused on
assembling normative descriptions of monolithic cultures that
endure for millennia, largely immune to the forces of historical
change. The papers in this volume seek to document forces of
difference and contestation in the past that were produced in the
perceptible engagements of peoples, things, and places. The
research gathered here convincingly demonstrates that these forces
made social life in ancient Eurasia rather more fitful and its
publics considerably more unruly than archaeological research has
traditionally allowed. Contributors are Mikheil Abramishvili, Paula
N. Doumani Dupuy, Magnus Fiskesjoe, Hilary Gopnik, Emma Hite,
Jean-Luc Houle, Erik G. Johannesson, James A. Johnson, Lori
Khatchadourian, Ian Lindsay, Maureen E. Marshall, Mitchell S.
Rothman, Irina Shingiray, Adam T. Smith, Kathryn O. Weber and Xin
Wu.
