古代铭文可能很难理解，也会让博物馆的观众感到不快，但它们充满了关于制作它们的人的个人故事和生动的信息。本文认为，克服这些对象所呈现的语言障碍可以提供一种与古代世界的深刻接触感，并探讨实现这一目标的可能方法。它着眼于从一系列欧洲博物馆的有效方法的例子，特别强调带出这些对象的感官，社会和叙事层面。它认为，碑刻可以改变博物馆参观者看待古代世界的方式，并使他们能够以新的创造性方式为自己解释过去。
Ancient inscriptions can be difficult to understand and off-putting to museum audiences, but they are packed with personal stories and vivid information about the people who made them. This article argues that overcoming the language barrier presented by these objects can offer a deep sense of engagement with the ancient world and explores possible ways of achieving this. It looks at examples of effective approaches from a range of European museums with a particular emphasis on bringing out the sensory, social, and narrative dimensions of these objects. It argues that inscriptions can change the way that museum visitors view the ancient world and empower them to interpret the past for themselves in new and creative ways.
