ABSTRACT:

This dissertation consists in a structured comparison of Bronze Age expositions in english and italian museums to highlight the main problems of museal communication in the later state. The method used to analise these museums (Museo Nazionale Archeologico di Egnazia, Museo delle Origini della Sapienza, Museo Civico Archeologico Etnologico di Modena, British Museum and the Ashmolean Museum) differs from most because the point of view used is not that of a scholar but of an occasional tourist or visitor. The conclusive chapters sum up the museal criticism and offer various ideas for future expositions.
