Examining objects and collecting in different historical, social and institutional contexts, an international, interdisciplinary group of authors consider the meanings and values with which objects are imputed and the processes and implications of collecting. This includes considering the entanglement of objects and collectors alike in webs of social relations, the creation of value and social change; object biographCollectors and collectingPhilosophyMuseumsPhilosophyElectronic books.Collectors and collectingPhilosophy.MuseumsPhilosophy.069.4790.13201Dudley Sandra H914757Pearce Susan M895694MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462415403321Narrating objects, collecting stories2050027UNINA
