Aesthetics and the Management of Heritage
About this Event

The past lies all around us in the form of monuments, buildings, and other forms of tangible heritage. Occasionally, we are forced to make choices about the future of such heritage. We might need to decide whether or not to arrest the decay of the object; or what to do with it in the face of complaints that it celebrates injustice; or whether or not to let it stand in the way of a commercial development; or, if it has been damaged, what to do about that damage. There is a rich history to such discussions, including contributions from Petrarch, Alberti, Viollet-le-Duc, Morris, Ruskin, and Riegl. This conference is dedicated to exploring the role of aesthetics in such discussions: to what extent should the aesthetic value of heritage objects play a part in our decision-making?

Venue: Churchill College, Cambridge.

Keynote speakers: Lisa Giombini, Roma Tre; Helen Frowe, Stockholm University; Zoltán Somhegyi, Károli Gáspár University; Salvador Muñoz Viñas, University of Valencia.

For enquires about accommodation, the conference dinner, or anything else please email Derek Matravers ([email protected]).
