The Buried Life of Things: How Objects Made History in Nineteenth-Century Britain
Goldhill, Simon (University of Cambridge)
Simon Goldhill offers a fresh and exciting perspective on how the Victorians used material culture to express the past, particularly the biblical past and the past of classical antiquity. Goldhill uncovers how the nineteenth century's sense of history was reinvented through things.
