Textual Practice: Dan on Omeka.org
Dan writes, “Archives preserve a range of cultural objects, including texts, and they are especially important for preserving materials of past textual practices. Omeka is a tool which allows a community to establish, preserve, and present an archive of cultural heritage materials. The archive, as Trouillot reminds us, is not neutral. The decisions of what is cataloged and collected are, like all other forms of human interaction, always bound in political negotiations of power. Much of the exciting work of archival studies today involves finding the traces of underrepresented groups in the material culture they left behind. Omeka provides one way of presenting recovery work of the forgotten and marginalized. “
