The Lives of Colonial Objects

4.00 (2 ratings by Goodreads)

English

By (author): Howard Feldman

The Lives of Colonial Objects is a sumptuously illustrated and highly readable book about things, and the stories that unfold when we start to investigate them. In this collection of 50 essays the authors, including historians, archivists, curators and Maori scholars, have each chosen an object from New Zealands colonial past. Some are treasured family possessions such as a kahu kiwi, a music album or a grandmothers travel diary, and their stories have come down through families. Some, like the tauihu of a Maori waka, a Samoan kilikiti bat or a flying boat, are housed in museums. Othersa cannon, a cottage and a country roadinhabit public spaces but they too turn out to have unexpected histories. Things invite us into the past through their tangible, tactile and immediate presence: in this collection they serve as 50 paths into New Zealands colonial history. See more
