In Memory and the Museum, Gaynor Kavanaugh argues that ""dream spaces"" are the point at which our inner and outer experiences meld. During the museum visit, memory and the present cease to be disparate but fuse into one singular experience. Drawing from such fields as behavioral gerontology, applied psychology, and historiography, Kavanaugh employs research from North America, Australia, and Europe to provide a critical and conceptual exploration into museums and the mind.MuseumsPhilosophyMuseumsSocial aspectsMuseumsEducational aspectsMemory (Philosophy)MemorySocial aspectsLearning, Psychology ofCommunication and cultureMuseumsPhilosophy.MuseumsSocial aspects.MuseumsEducational aspects.Memory (Philosophy)MemorySocial aspects.Learning, Psychology of.Communication and culture.069Kavanagh Gaynor1500440MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782848603321Dream spaces3792346UNINA
