Literacy og runekyndighet i vikingtiden er emner som har vært mye diskutert i forskningen. Ulike tilnærminger til tematikken avhenger blant annet av hvilke forståelser av literacy en legger til grunn. Dette bidraget tar et blikk på kunnskapsstatusen og reflekterer over mulige veier videre. Velkommen til frokostseminar med professor Kristel Zilmer!
What does sustainability mean in a museum context, and what can we do to manage collections in a sustainable perspective?
I dette seminaret utforsker vi de abstrakte kreftene som påvirker en utstilling av kulturhistoriske, religiøse, så vel som arkitektoniske objekter og kunst.
Throughout the time that museums have existed, the public has contributed to creating new knowledge. Museum collections and archives have been enriched with the help of many people’s efforts, interests and voluntary work – from submission of finds to preservation and sharing of local knowledge and traditions.
Archaeology may be in the midst of yet another ‘scientific revolution’. What then, is the use of archaeological theory in an academic world that favours measurable outcomes?
The Challenge of Being a World Culture Museum Today.
Narratives of human sacrifice are fraught with colonial heritage in multiple ways, from the ways in which accusations of human sacrifice and cannibalism was used as a legitimating tool by colonialist powers to the Eurocentric frameworks of knowledge production which upholds traditional assumed meanings of acts interpreted as sacrifice. The workshop seeks to approach this complex topic from varied viewpoints and materials, to create an environment for open discussion about how we can decolonise the study of multifaceted forms of sanctioned violence and expressions thereof. We will discuss the influence of political and strategic desires to Other those to whom such practices were ascribed, and the residual effects of colonialist frameworks on current knowledge, along with other angles and questions.
