Museums and American Intellectual Life, 1876-1925
Steven Conn
Examining various museums, this text argues that Americans built the institutions with the confidence that they could collect, organize, and display the sum of the world's knowledge. It discovers how they gave definition to different bodies of knowledge and how that knowledge was presented.
