In recent years, historical witnessing has emerged as a category of "museum object." Audiovisual recordings of interviews with individuals remembering events of historical importance are now integral to the collections and research activities of museums. They have also become important components in narrative and exhibition design strategies. With a focus on Holocaust museums, this study scrutinizes for the first time the new global phenomenon of the "musealization" of the witness to history, exploring the processes, prerequisites, and consequences of the transformation of video testimonies into exhibits.

Recenzijos

De Jongs study is enriching and stimulating. Her strength lies in categorizing, in reflection, and taking the debate about contemporary witnesses to a new level. Whoever wants to learn about the role of eye witnesses in the Memorial Museum will not be able to ignore this study. H-Soz-Kult





In The Witness as Object, Steffi de Jong adds an important layer to [ current] discussions by offering a comparative perspective on video testimonies as museum objects that are part of a broader, ideological narrativeAlthough the focus of her work is on memorial museumsthis research has implications for the analysis of many other museum types that utilize video testimonies in their dramaturgyNavigating a vast array of theoretical literaturede Jong is able to offer a nuanced discussion of the ethical and theoretical dilemmas inherent in the use of video testimonies. Reading Religion





This is an impressive and often powerfully written book. It offers an insightful analysis and an accessible point of entry into key debates around the function of testimony and the differences between communicative and cultural memory. Andrea Witcomb, Deakin University





This excellent volume makes an original and timely contribution to the study of museums on the one hand, and to contemporary reflections on mediated witnessing on the other. Tamar Katriel, University of Haifa
