À propos de cet audio
On this episode of Whose Heritage, P.T. Meadors and Ellie Penner visit the British Museum. During their visit, P.T. and Ellie visited the famous Parthenon Marbles exhibit and spoke with visitors about their experience viewing the exhibit. Moreover, P.T. and Ellie got a first hand look at the debate over repatriating the Parthenon Marbles to Athens, Greece. From archaeologists to a couple on a date, we learned about what some people think about the Parthenon Marbles being in Britain.
This episode covers issues such as accessibility of museum displays, the role of profit in museum exhibits, as well as discussion of moral obligations. Additionally, P.T. and Ellie discuss their perspectives on the benefits and downsides of the exhibit at the British Museum in preparation for their later trip to Athens. The issue of returning the Parthenon Marbles is one that is rooted in a convoluted, confusing history of the objects, and this episode aims to provide listeners with new perspectives of regular people, not a government official or a museum executive.
