Description
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 museums own past, whilst also demonstrating what museums are and making suggestions as to what they might become.
