Museum Representations of Motherhood and the Maternal Mother Stuff Museum Representations of Motherhood and the Maternal is the first book to address the underrepresentation of motherhood in museums. Questioning how mothering and maternal experiences should be represented in museums Louise-Clarke argues that such institutions wield the power to influence what we think about families mothers and the labour of care. Using the term ‘mothering’ to encompass lived experiences of mothering or caring that are not exclusively tied to sex gender or the maternal body Louise-Clarke explores the ways that experiences of mothering can be represented in museums. The book begins this exploration with Australia’s Museums Victoria (MV) then expands to look at international cases. Offering a blueprint for what Louise-Clarke calls a ‘museology of mothering’ the book imagines what a museum that articulates maternal subjectivities might look and sound like. Museum Representations of Motherhood and the Maternal initiates a dialogue between museum studies and maternal studies making it essential reading for scholars and students working in both disciplines. Questioning conventional museum practices and the values that underpin them the book will also be of interest to museum and heritage practitioners around the world. | Museum Representations of Motherhood and the Maternal Mother Stuff GBP 48.99 1
