Meaning and Power in a Southeast Asian Realm
(Princeton Legacy Library)
by Shelly Errington
Hardcover, 344 Pages, Published 1989 by Princeton University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-691-09445-8, ISBN: 0-691-09445-4

" The ruler in the Indic States of Southeast Asia was seen not as the "head of state" but as the center or navel of the world.

Power and Difference(1st Edition)
Gender in Island Southeast Asia
by Shelly Errington, Jane Atkinson, Jane Monnig Atkinson
Paperback, 520 Pages, Published 1990 by Stanford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-8047-1779-3, ISBN: 0-8047-1779-6

And Other Tales of Progress
by Shelly Errington
Hardcover, 335 Pages, Published 1998 by University Of California Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-520-21095-0, ISBN: 0-520-21095-6

"In this lucid, witty, and forceful book, Shelly Errington argues that Primitive Art was invented as a new type of art object at the beginning of the twentieth century but that now, at the century's end, it has died a double but contradictory death. Authenticity and primitivism, both attacked by cultural critics, have died as concepts. At the same time, the penetration of nation-states, the tourist industry, and transnational corporation ..."

"02 Based on the 2003 Clark Conference, this new volume in the highly successful series Clark Studies in the Visual Arts examines the intersections and divergences between art history and anthropology. How do these disciplines understand the term “art”? What sorts of questions do they ask of the work of art?

"Beyond the Turnstile argues that museums are indispensable to civil society, especially in an era in which museums often are reduced to cultural businesses or "edu-tainment" sites. Is it inevitable that a museum's success will be measured solely by how many people come through the door and how much money they spend? The eminent contributors to this volume provide museum leaders with a different set of criteria for evaluating the success ..."
