Del libro aacute;ureo es una coleccioacute;n de trabajos que tienen el objetivo comuacute;n de abordar algunos de los aspectos maacute;s significativos de la constitucioacute;n de la edicioacute;n impresa desde sus oriacute;genes hasta finales del siglo XVII. Tratan; por tanto; de las diferentes estructuras que componen el universo tipograacute;fico y conceptual del libro: el tiacute;tulo; la letra inicial; el formato y la representacioacute;n editorial; asiacute; como el recuerdo de la persistencia de su memoria en las bibliotecas y en los inventarios. Los anaacute;lisis particulares de cada uno de estos elementos; relacionados en su contexto histoacute;rico a traveacute;s de una rigurosa investigacioacute;n documental; van revelando la disposicioacute;n secuencial que constituye a la postre el objeto libro desde la perspectiva material de su formacioacute;n graacute;fica y sus contenidos intelectuales. Se incluyen; como colofoacute;n y complemento; tres de los maacute;s antiguos testimonios que se conservan sobre el mismo tema.

While I disagree with some of his positions here; I value this volume all the same because he lays out a crystal clear argument about some of the most important issues in museum studies: who controls the narrative of museum exhibitions and who these narratives benefit. While I disagree with his thesis that museums present a thoroughly open narrative without a top-down message; this book is so clear that it serves to advance the debate quite well by giving readers concise material to work with.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A pleasure of a bookBy Doris V. HarrisMuseums Matter is a first rate look at the history and philosophy behind the modern museum and a (for me) eye opening understanding of the way museums have and do influence our immediate culture--indeed in many actually creating it.0 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Christmas is coming!By winnifred reedThis is a pretty; little book....great as a gift. Some of the language is needlessly obscure which slows the flow of the narrative; The book does make interesting observations while sharing bits of history.
