First published in 1999, this volume examines antiquarianism which
had its roots in Renaissance thought and was a popular intellectual
and cultural pursuit throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth
centuries. The antiquarian work of collecting, compiling and
presenting material which exposed the past was seminal to the
formation of social and national identities. These essays evaluate
the cultural and poltical implications of antiquarianism in the
period 1700-1850. The volume also considers how the antiquarians
laid the foundations of later museum culture and the discipline of
history. With a preface by Stephen Bann and introduced by Martin
Myrone and Lucy Peltz, Producing the Past has contributions from
Stephen Bending, Alexandrina Buchanan, Susan A. Crane, David
Haycock, Maria Grazia Lolla, Heather MacLennan, Martin Myrone, Lucy
Peltz, Annegret Pelz, Sam Smiles and Johann Reusch.
