The book contributes to a recontextualization of authenticity by investigating how this value is created reenacted and assigned. Over the course of the last century authenticity figured as the major parameter for the evaluation of cultural heritage. It was adopted in local and international charters and guidelines on architectural conservation in Europe South and East Asia. Throughout this period the concept of authenticity was constantly redefined and transformed to suit new cultural contexts and local concerns. This volume presents colonial and postcolonial discourses opinions and experiences in the field of architectural heritage conservation and the use of site-specific practices based on representative case studies presented by art historians architects anthropologists and conservationists from Germany Nepal India China and Japan. With more than 180 illustrations and a collection of terminologies in German English Sanskrit Hindi Nevari and Nepali classical Chinese and standard Mandarin and Japanese these cross-cultural investigations document the processual re-configuration of the notion of authenticity. They also show that approaches to authenticity can be specified with key analytical categories from transcultural studies: appropriation transformation and in some cases refusal.
