Dans une démarche interdisciplinaire inspirée des études des sciences et techniques, articulant approches muséologiques et sociologiques, cette étude inédite sur les réserves des musées apporte un éclairage nouveau sur le monde de la conservation de l'art et du patrimoine. Lieu essentiel du musée où sont conservées les œuvres quand elles ne sont pas exposées, les réserves sont restées longtemps dans l'ombre des salles d'expositions. Or, dans la majorité des institutions, seule une infime portion des collections est présentée au public : il y a donc un réel enjeu à penser la relation entre leurs parts visible et invisible, les problématiques liées à leur stockage et leur mouvement, et le travail qu'elles impliquent.

Summary:
This publication is a book of stories, depictions of vanished ways of life told from the point of view of a contemporary observer. The stories tell how people lived in Japan some two hundred years ago, during the late Edo Period, when traditional technology and culture were at the peak of development and realization, just before the country opened itself to the West and joined the ranks of the industrialized nations. They tell of people overcoming many of the identical problems that confront us today--issues of energy, water, materials, food and population--and forging a society that was conservation-minded, waste-free, well-housed, well-fed and economically robust.
