Hardback, xx + 486 Pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:676 b/w, 96 col., 9 tables b/w., Language:English, *new. ISBN 9782503616858. Throughout the nineteenth, and for much of the twentieth century, archives were considered to be containers of knowledge, holding material that was deemed to be objective and unbiased. In more recent years, however, as scholars have begun to engage more with archival material, this perception has changed, and archives have increasingly been recognized as sites of contention, holding curated historical documents ? a re-evaluation that, in turn, has led to a new understanding of the role and significance of both archives and archiving practices, as well as to revived interest in their contents. Taking renewed scholarly interest in archives as its starting point, this volume highlights the importance of archival material both as a source of study, and as a way of unleashing hitherto ?lost? knowledge. The chapters gathered here present previously unpublished material for the first time, as well as offer new insights into archival and curatorial practices. Through this approach, the authors not only reveal unknown aspects and histories of both past and ongoing excavations, but also shed light on the creation processes of an archive, an element that is typically lost by the time the material is designated as an archive by those who study it. The result is a volume that can shape best archival practices and approaches for the future. TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Illustrations List of Abbreviations 1.
