Item description from seller

Zustandsbeschreibung: Mängelexemplarstempel auf Schnitt, Schnitt etwas bestoßen und angeschmutzt/defect copy stamp on cut, cut somewhat bumped and soiled. Edited by Anna Usacheva and Emilia Mataix Ferrándiz. This issue takes an inclusive approach to the multidimensional topic of Mediterranean movement, as the themes to be discussed include migration, trade, travelling objects, knowledge exchange, and dissemination of books. The case studies demonstrate the impact of movement on the processes of identity building, whether social, cultural, or religious. Apart from textual sources, the nine articles included in this issue explore the movement of objects that are characterised by temporal continuity, embodying a prior existence with lingering effects. As objects transform through time and space, so do the values and functions attributed to them. The process of mapping out itineraries of value in the realm of the material allows us to grasp the nature of a given social formation through the shape and meaning taken on by them. It also provides insights into the nature of dynamic synergy between the world of material objects and the realm of beliefs, knowledge, and identities. -- From the content: 1.
