This Masters programme introduces students to the histories of collections and collecting as well as their display, historically and in the present; it addresses cultures of collecting in Europe, and more specifically Britain, from the 16th century onwards, as part of aristocratic and court life, as well as forms of civic enterprise and private philanthropy or pleasure; students explore the origins of public museums and trace the development of spectacular temporary exhibitions of national progress and empire in the nineteenth century through to the heritage culture and industry of the post-modern era.
Core modules: Research forum; research and professional skills; cultures of collecting; antiquarianism; collecting landscape. Optional modules: 2 dimensional digitisation (theory and practice); a course from elsewhere in the college of arts.
