| Notes | Includes bibliographical references and index Most historians rely principally on written sources. Yet there are other traces of the past available to historians: the material things that people have chosen, made, and used. This book examines how material culture can enhance historians' understanding of the past, both worldwide and across time. The successful use of material culture in history depends on treating material things of many kinds not as illustrations, but as primary evidence. Each kind of material thing requires the application of interpretive skills appropriate to it. These skills overlap with those acquired by scholars in disciplines that may abut history but are often relatively unfamiliar to historians, including anthropology, archaeology, and art history. Historians can adapt and apply the same skills they honed while studying more traditional text-based sources even as they borrow methods from these fields Specialized Description based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on April 28, 2020) HTTP:URL=http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780199341764.001.0001 Information=Oxford handbooks online |
