商品簡介
Academics and practitioners in geography and in the museum and heritage fields from across Europe examine the relationships between place and time as they are related through the medium of heritage. By creative imagination, they explain, individuals and societies transform the material world into cultural and economic realms of meaning and lived experience, but there is also a dimension of time, and the possibility of conflict with the meanings that other people attribute to a place. Within sections on creating senses of place from senses of time, the public/official creation of identities, and insiders and outsiders, they explore such topics as the commodification of regional identities, building on Inuit past, and three examples from Belfast of literature and the constitution of place identity.
