SPRING 1997


TTh 2:00 - 3:15 pm


"We are surrounded by things, and we are surrounded by history. But too seldom do we use the artifacts that make up our environment to understand the past. Too seldom do we try to read objects as we read books - to understand the people and times that created them, used them, and discarded them."
From History From Things edited by Steven Lubar and W. David Kingery
