What is the 'real thing' in cultural heritage? The papers in this book address the concepts of authenticity and replication for the interpretation, display and conservation of our cultural heritage. In the West the value placed on 'original' materials has been central to our understanding of cultural heritage. While advances in conservation science provide detailed information on the tangible properties of objects, there is a growing emphasis on the importance of their conceptual framework and the context in which they were created. Therefore, we have to consider the value of different ways of representing objects and debate whether one stage of their history should take precedence over others. In this context, the potential use of replication broadens the discussion on authenticity and brings about additional challenges - in what circumstances does a replica gain significance as another form of the 'real thing'? While the concept of authenticity continues to be one of the core factors driving decision making in conservation and interpretation, new approaches towards the display and use of collections are challenging conventions, making the roles of curators, conservators, art historians and conservation scientists increasingly complex. The papers in this volume address this dilemma and provide a platform for the continued discussion of this valuable and intriguing subject.

The longing for authenticity, on an individual or collective level, connects the search for external expressions to internal orientations. What is largely referred to as production of authenticity is a reformulation of cultural values and norms within the ongoing process of modernity, impacted by globalization and contemporary transnational cultural flows. This collection interrogates the notion of authenticity from an anthropological point of view and considers authenticity in terms of how meaning is produced in and through discourses about authenticity. Incorporating case studies from four continents, the topics reach from art and colonialism to exoticism-primitivism, film, ritual, and wilderness. Some contributors emphasize the dichotomy between the academic use of the term and the one deployed in public spaces and political projects. All, however, consider authenticity as something that can only be understood ethnographically, and not as a simple characteristic or category used to distinguish some behaviors, experiences, or material things from other less authentic versions.

"The patrimonial obsession of the authentic, which tends to turn the world into a museum and to make us, in a way, tourists of our own existence, may well substitute the reassuring and consensual virtue of exegetic comments to the critical faculty. This is indispensable to all living memory and all acts of creation. More than other art disciplines - those highly inventive skills -, and far from being a protective case or screen, architecture may provide a way to materialise and to feel the space that links us to the world and to others. I believe that this is the lesson the authors of this book invite us to meditate upon ... In other words, architecture is potentially a shared language, rather than a confiscated expert's word, and there is the possibility to act in and upon the world by jointly planned action of the disgno and the ingenio that convoke space and time, mixing together language and body"--Daniel Vander Gucht (p. [4] of cover).
