【 摘 要 】
Can Bilsel’s Antiquity on Display: Regimes of the Authentic in Berlin’s Pergamon Museum presents a history of the Pergamon Museum from its conception in the late nineteenth century to the present.Focusing mainly on its formative period, Bilsel analyzes its iconic displays and explores the various contexts and practices that conditioned their creation, with a particular emphasis on the concept of authenticity in historic preservation.This review provides a summary of the contents of the book and examines Bilsel’s arguments, while also offering some comments on the broader history of displaying antiquities in museums.
