Paperback. Condition: New. This is a book about a box that contained the world. The box was the Picture Academy for the Young, a popular encyclopedia in pictures invented by preacher-turned-publisher Johann Siegmund Stoy in eighteenth-century Germany. Children were expected to cut out the pictures from the Academy, glue them ont…o cards, and arrange those cards in ordered compartments - the whole world filed in a box of images. As Anke te Heesen deminstrates, Stoy and his world in a box epitomized the Enlightenment concern with the creation and maintenance of an appropriate moral, intellectual, and social order. The box, and its images from nature, myth, and biblical history, were intended to teach children how to collect, store, and order knowledge, te Heesen compares the Academy with other aspects of Enlightenment material culture, such as commercial warehouses and natural history cabinets, to show how the kinds of collecting and ordering practices taught by the Academy shaped both Enlightenment thought and the developing middle class in Germany.The World in a Box, illustrated with a multitude of images of and from Stoy's Academy, offers a glimpse into a time when it was believed that knowledge could be contained and controlled.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Sehr gut. 219 S. ; 17 cm Zustand: sehr gut --- Inhalt: Nur selten in der Geschichte hat eine Institution eine solche Konjunktur erfahren wie in den letzten Jahren das Museum. Zahlreiche Neueröffnungen und Neukonzeptionen haben diesen Speicherort von materiellen Sachzeugen in das Zentrum geisteswissenschaf…tlicher Reflexion gerückt. Zur gleichen Zeit hat sich ein differenziertes Ausstellungswesen entwickelt, das wichtige Impulse für die Darstellung von Wissen außerhalb der Buchkultur erbracht hat. Diese Einführung beschreibt die historischen Etappen der Sammlungs- und Museumsgeschichte seit der Renaissance und gibt einen Überblick über die derzeit wichtigsten theoretischen Annäherungen an das Phänomen. So erlaubt der Band einen differenzierten Blick auf den `Zeigeraum` des Museums und entfaltet dabei die feine, aber zentrale Unterscheidung zwischen Museum und Ausstellung. HZ3-9 ISBN: 9783885066989 Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 250.
