In early twentiethcentury Berlin, Wilhelm von Bode sparked a controversy with his sweeping proposal to reorganize a group of the citys museums. Debates about the role and structure of museums played out in 1907 and 1910 with two striking series of articles that appeared in the journal Museumskunde: Journal for the Administration and Technology of Public and Private Collections. The first was a sixpart essay by Otto Lauffer on history museums, and the second was a tenpart piece by Oswald Richter regarding ethnographic museums. Together, they initiated a century of significant dialogue.The Museum in the Cultural Sciences offers the first full English translations of these articles, which remain influential in conversations about the implications of art, historical, and ethnographic museums. They show how sophisticated the discussion of museums and museum display was in the early twentieth century and how much could be gained from revisiting these reflections today. Accompanied by short commentaries from museum professionals, these articles offer an intervention into and intensification of the current debate about the function and purpose of museums.
