Synopsis
With a collection born of the East India Company and material whose origins stretch across the British Empire, the ethics and practice of restitution is of growing importance to the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. In this lecture historian and V&A Director Dr Tristram Hunt argues that museums should be less concerned about becoming sites of ‘transitional justice,’ adjudicating on the colonial past, and focus more on detailed, trans-national provenance research. Through biographies of objects with so-called ‘contested heritage,’ Dr Hunt will explain the V&A strategy of Renewable Cultural Partnerships and how museums can engage with, and develop from, the coming era of restitution and repatriation.

Beginning at the entrance to the Student Prison and to the ancient Lecture Hall of the University (subject to availability, both areas will be visited), we follow in the footsteps of Mark Twain based on his humorous book "A Tramp Abroad." Mark Twain enriched Heidelberg's image world-wide as a multi-faceted city of culture, contributing to Heidelberg's designation 140 years later as Germany's only "UNESCO City of Literature."
