Os velhos caminhos de Congonhas numa perspectiva de educação patrimonial / The old ways of Congonhas perspective of heritage educationValber Souza Silva 26 November 2014 (has links)
O patrimônio arqueológico do município de Congonhas, Estado de Minas Gerais, vem sendo destruído ao longo de sua história mais recente por conta principalmente do crescimento urbano desordenado. A cidade cresce impulsionada pela demanda mundial por minerais como o ferro e desta forma, avança sobre os sítios arqueológicos que a circundam, sem que sejam observados alguns dos cuidados necessários ou a legislação vigente, que pesam sobre o patrimônio arqueológico brasileiro. Contudo, a Educação Patrimonial pode significar um acesso ao conhecimento sobre o patrimônio arqueológico de Congonhas e para sua preservação, utilizando de vestígios arqueológicos aflorados sobre o solo, trabalhando para produzir uma Arqueologia Pública, buscando promover a viabilização de meios de preservação e musealização de sítios arqueológicos revelados por uma Arqueologia Histórica engajada com tendências mundiais da Arqueologia, como uma alternativa coerente com a atual situação arqueológica do município. / The archaeologycalheritage in Congonhas municipal district, in Minas Gerais State, Brasil, have been destroyed along its more recent history principally by desordinated urban growing.

'Dark Tourism': Reducing Dissonance in the Interpretation of Atrocity at Selected Museums in Washington, D.C.Kazalarska, Svetla Iliaeva 01 May 2003 (has links)
Degree awarded (2003): MA, Department of Tourism and Hospitality Management, George Washington University / This thesis focuses on the issue of dissonance in the interpretation of atrocity at museums and other cultural heritage sites. The existing debates in the field are outlined in an extensive literature review encompassing general and specific references. The basic conceptual framework of the dark tourism phenomenon is elaborated through case studies in Washington D.C., illustrating the variety of interpretative dilemmas faced by museum directors and curators. The cases include the permanent exhibition at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, the Enola Gay exhibition at the National Air and Space Museum, and the National Museum of the American Indian on the Mall. The identified controversies are analyzed, and recommendations for mitigating existing conflicts and suggestions for future research are offered. / Advisory Committee: Prof. Donald E. Hawkins (Chair)

The Voice of the Authorized Heritage Discourse : A critical analysis of signs at ancient monuments in SKåne, southern SwedenHögberg, Anders January 2013 (has links)
The study presents an investigation of a regionalauthorized heritage discourse, represented by theCounty Administrative Board on signs set up at ancientmonuments and sites in the province of Skånein southern Sweden. The starting point is a criticalanalysis of layout, texts and illustrations to ascertainthe narratives conveyed by the signs. The results showthat slightly less than half of the studied signs workwell according to the criteria set up for the study. Theresult also demonstrates that more than half of thestudied signs do not work well according to these criteria.Those that work well give detailed informationabout the ancient monument or site. The signs that donot work well give inadequate information and riskexcluding a majority of the people who read them.The latter signs confirm what so many other discourseanalyses have shown, that the authorized heritage discourseto a large extent still privileges the perspectivesof a white, middle-class male. The former signs, thatis, those that are judged to work well in terms of thecriteria applied in this study, show that the authorizedheritage discourse does not only offer something thatprivileges the perspectives of that white, middle classmale, but also has the ability to offer narratives withother perspectives.

Beyond Linear Explanation : A theoretical study of definitions, concepts and discourses about the Sami people’s cultural heritage in SwedenPinto-Guillaume, Ezequiel January 2015 (has links)
The Sami people of Northern Europe live in a cultural region (Sápmi), which stretches across the northern parts of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. An authorized heritage discourse in these countries interpret Sami cultural heritage from a Westernized point-of-view. Higher cultural institutions use today definitions which are based on a prevailing authorized heritage discourse, while others avoid or feel no need to use the term “cultural heritage”. Some Sami institutions have recently begun to use definitions of cultural heritage that agree with a Westernized point-of-view. However, there are a few published definitions by the Sami-people of their own culture in official homepages and regional organizations that present a different discourse. With this study I hope to be able to shed some light upon at least two discourses: 1. that of the ruling-state and 2. the Sami people’s own.

Recovering evicted memories : an exploration of heritage policies, intangible heritage, and storytelling in Vancouver, BCLeung, Diana E. 05 1900 (has links)
In 2003, UNESCO adopted the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage to officially recognize the value of non-physical heritage. Previously, established conservation standards focused on physical heritage, namely historic architecture, which generally reflected the values of western societies but did not necessarily accommodate other forms of cultural heritage. The adoption of the Convention signified a shift towards a more inclusive approach.
My thesis grounds this international discussion in a locality by examining conservation issues and practices in Vancouver, British Columbia. My thesis contains two key findings:
(1) Echoing international criticism of established conservation standards, Vancouver’s heritage conservation policies tend to systemically favour aesthetically significant and structurally robust architecture. As a result, certain histories without existing architecture become obsolete, leaving a selective history in Vancouver’s everyday landscape.
(2) At the same time, Vancouver has also hosted a number of community history projects. These recent projects have been able to recover fading memories of this landscape through storytelling, a form of intangible heritage, and to reconnect these histories to the locations where they originated (what Pierre Nora (1989) calls milieux de mémoire).
My recommendations include a formal integration of intangible heritage projects with the established heritage conservation program and suggest opportunities to achieve this integration. These recommendations hope to encourage a more inclusive approach that recognizes a place’s history contains diverse, coexisting and overlapping narratives, and acknowledges the parts of this history that may be damaged by forces of gentrification, urban renewal and colonization. By approaching the city’s landscape as a palimpsest, inclusive heritage conservation practice can make Vancouver more than a site of residence with aesthetic character, but a place that owns its past.

Pocesses of patrimolialisation in soviet and post-soviet Lithuania / Kultūros palikimo įpaveldinimo procesai sovietinėje ir posovietinėje LietuvojeVaitkuvienė, Agnė 02 November 2010 (has links)
The object of the research is the process of patrimonialisation in the state heritage protection by converting cultural material remains into heritage. To reveal it, the aspect of assessing monuments of the past is referred to which is expressed when material remains are recognised as valuable and protected by the state. The present paper synthesizes the history of Soviet and post-Soviet heritage records referring more to the principle of values than institutional principle. The methods and principles of attributing values to the objects of cultural heritage during the processes of patrimolisation are described. As the result the pragmatic approach to the formation of monument lists possessing including both Soviet or Lithuanian nationalistic ideological approach features was stated, as well as links to the Western heritage protection theoretical thought were shown and formation principles of associative/symbolic, informational, esthetical and economic were described. After regaining of independence the bigger attention to older, pre-Soviet objects of heritage to ensure legitimation of statehood was traced, and the rise of new – social and economical – cultural heritage values is observed. / Disertacijos objektas yra verčių formavimo procesai valstybinėje paveldosaugoje įpaveldinant kultūros palikimą. Jam atskleisti remiamasi palikimo vertinimo aspektu, kuris atsispindi senieną pripažįstant vertinga ir saugoma valstybės. Disertacijoje nagrinėjama kultūros paveldo apskaita sovietinėje ir posovietinėje Lietuvoje remiantis ne instituciniu, o vertybiniu modeliu. Atskleidžiami įpaveldinimo procesų metu vystančio verčių priskyrimo kultūros palikimo objektams metodai ir principai. Darbe konstatuojamas sovietmečiu paminklų apskaitoje vyravęs pragmatinis – parodomasis verčių formavimo principas savyje turintis ir sovietinės, ir lietuviškosios nacionalistinės ideologijos aspektų, parodomos jo sąsajos su Vakarų paminklosauga, atskleidžiami asociatyvinių/simbolinių, informacinių, estetinių bei ekonominių verčių formavimo ypatumai. Lietuvai atkūrus nepriklausomybę stebimas paveldo objektų „senėjimas“ atsisakant „neseno“ sovietmečio palikimo prioritetą teikiant kuo senesniam paveldui siekiant legitimuoti Lietuvos valstybingumą, taip pat amžių sankirtoje konstatuojama naujų – socialinių ir ekonominių – paveldo verčių aktualizavimo pradžia.

Conserving spaces of memory and heritage: the complexities, challenges and politics of the stone wall project on bluestone quarry at Robben IslandLusaka, Mwayi Woyamba January 2016 (has links)
Magister Artium - MA / This thesis is a critical study of a conservation project on restoration of a Stone Wall at Bluestone Quarry on Robben Island, a world heritage site. The Stone Wall was built by the ex-political prisoners, in the early 1960s, as part of their hard labour. The thesis mainly focuses on the contestations that arose during the twelve year period of the project (2002 to 2014) among the stakeholders that included the ex-political prisoners, the environmentalists, the heritage managers and South African Heritage Resource Agency. Central to this study was the question, when a restoration project of a significant heritage site is informed by oral history and memories how are the concerns of diverse range of interest groups addressed and resolved? The thesis is grounded in the theoretical frameworks of sites of memory, heritage and conservation. The study involved both archival research and oral history as its research methodologies. The thesis shows that during the restoration project of the Stone Wall, the proposed designs had impacts on authenticity and biodiversity of the site. The various stakeholders that were involved debated and sought ways to influence decisions in resolving these impacts. Where necessary compromises were made. The thesis argues that during the project, oral history and memory work, and by extension the ex-political prisoners, had a significant role in influencing some of the important decisions. Among other things, the thesis seeks to provide a critical understanding of issues of heritage and conservation management on sites that are of cultural/historical significance.
