商品描述

This book explores the role museums play in shaping the cultural and historical identities of Central Asia. Through an analysis of around 50 museums, this book offers insights into how these "memory machines" contribute to contemporary identity formation in Central Asia, serving as both cultural guardians and storytellers. It traces the development of these institutions from the Russian colonial era to the present, examining how they have navigated the region's complex socio-political landscape.

The book addresses various themes, such as the influence of Soviet policies on museum development, the relationship between religion and atheism in museum narratives, and the renewed interest in pre-Soviet cultural heritage. It also considers how museums utilise historical figures and scientific achievements to craft national stories, exploring identity through the dual perspectives of settled and nomadic lifestyles.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討博物館在塑造中亞文化和歷史身份中的角色。通過對約50個博物館的分析,本書提供了這些「記憶機器」如何促進中亞當代身份形成的見解,並作為文化守護者和故事講述者。它追溯了這些機構從俄羅斯殖民時代到現在的發展,檢視它們如何在該地區複雜的社會政治環境中運作。

本書涉及多個主題,例如蘇聯政策對博物館發展的影響、博物館敘事中宗教與無神論的關係,以及對前蘇聯文化遺產的新興興趣。它還考慮了博物館如何利用歷史人物和科學成就來塑造國家故事,通過定居和遊牧生活方式的雙重視角來探索身份。
