500 $a"This volume derives from a School for Advanced Research short seminar held in Santa Fe on May 8-9, 2012, entitled Things in Motion : Object Histories, Biographies, and Itineraries; the seminar reunited speakers from a 2010 American Anthropological Association symposium of the same name, which focused on the circulation of materials in archaeological and museum contexts"--From chapter 1.
520 2 $a"The contributors to Things in Motion, collectively, demonstrate the dynamic capacity of things in motion, from the point where things emerge from source material, to their circulation in the contemporary world, including their extended circulation through reproduction in other media. The various chapters show that examining the itineraries of things multiplies the assemblages things form and multiplies the sites at which we can recognize things in motion. None of the things discussed seem to ever have died. Their itineraries are continued by their movement in and out of museums and curation facilities, where many of them have come to rest temporarily, the circulation of their images, and their adaptation in sometimes unexpected contemporary material culture. Their itineraries also include the scholarship about them, to which this volume contributes, making it another site assembled by these active things"--Provided by publisher.
