Mouseio Benaki 11-12, 2011-2012. Greek/english, 300 pages, ISSN 1109-4109.
The latest issue of the Benaki Museum journal (11-12, 2011-2012) has just been published.
To publicise the collections and promote research the Museum has been publishing an annual journal since 2001 (Mouseio Benaki), containing original academic research relating to – or inspired by – objects in its collections or archives, as well as annual reports on the activities of the Museum’s research departments. The journal carries both Greek and foreign-language articles, which are accompanied by abstracts in English or Greek respectively.
Given that the Museum’s material is diverse, multicultural and covers a broad time period, the journal thus enhances the dialogue between the disciplines of archaeology, ethnography, social anthropology, museology, history, history of art, history of architecture etc.
2014 marks a new era for the journal: thanks to a collaboration with the National Documentation Centre (EKT), past copies as well as forthcoming issues of Mouseio Benaki, together with its supplements, will be published in print and online, thus making it easily accessible to both the academic community and the general public.
