The Museum of Babel

- Meditations on the Return to Curiosity

Bag om The Museum of Babel

Thurner explores the broader meaning of the ongoing return to curiosity in the museum within this book and argues that it indicates a need for reflection about what museums are actually museums of. The Museum of Babel provides a unique and thoughtful reflection upon this fundamental question and examines the history of museums from a transatlantic perspective. Providing engaging and lively meditations on the histories that have made museums, Thurner provides a novel reflection on exhibits of the museum¿s own past, whilst also demonstrating what museums are and making suggestions as to what they might become.
