Moving toward the museum : the collection of antique spolia -- Parallel collections of weapons and antiquities -- The rise of the imperial museum -- The dialectic of law and infringement -- Technologies of collection : railroads and cameras -- Antiquities collections in the imperial museum -- Islamic arts in imperial collections -- Military collections in the late empire -- Islamic and archaeological antiquities after the Young Turk revolution
This work analyses how and why museums emerged in the late 19th century Ottoman Empire. It argues that Ottoman elites produced categories of collection and modes of display appropriate to framing a new identity for the empire in the modern era rather than emulating museums in Western Europe
