EXHIBITING THE PAST GEBUNDEN

Gradually the historians of education have broken out of the traditional school museums - which
are no longer the sole places to communicate research findings with the wider public - and gone
beyond the traditional publication formats. Indeed  they started exploring how to work with the
[educational] past in the present  experimenting with presenting the educational past in new
ways  and reflecting on how these new forms of mediation and musealisation of sources impacts
the research and the (hi)stories told. By zooming in on three themes  musealisation  new ways
of exhibiting  and historical storytelling -  this edited volume illustrates the vitality of
the history of education  as field of study  and demonstrates its adaptability to the changing
contexts of its public function. So  rather than being an endangered species  the historians of
education seem to get fit for the future by showing traditional craftsmanship as well as
engagement with and appropriation of (interdisciplinary) approaches of thinking with the past
in the present for wider audiences - stances which are richly illustrated in the various
contributions.
