"Interpretation in the reign of 'the whatever'"

Library and Archives Canada
Auditorium, 395 Wellington, Ottawa
Tuesday, February 13th, 2007
10:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m

Abstract

This presentation will examine issues of "interpretation" in the exhibition of documentary heritage collections. In doing so it will focus on the new notions of relationality and some of the questions that resonate within LAC such as 'matters of fact' vs 'matters of concern'.

Let Dr. Meszaros inform and provoke you on these issues and many more.
