Tangible Things: Making History through Objects
Ulrich, Laurel Thatcher (Three-hundredth Anniversary University Professor, Three-hundredth Anniversary University Professor, Harvard University)
Based on the rich museum collections of Harvard University, Tangible Things challenges rigid distinctions between history, anthropology, science, and the arts. Through 20 entertaining and inspiring case studies it demonstrates that almost any material thing, when examined closely, can be a link between present and past.
