metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The museum, named after its founder A. Kircher, is not sufficiently appreciated by museum
  historians in this country, limited only to brief characteristics of this cultural phenomenon
  of the Baroque era. The exposition of the museum was a complete author’s model of the Universe,
  a world of metaphors and symbols generated by the mystical worldview of A. Kircher.
  A world far from physical reality, despite the fact that its creator knew and took into account
  the main scientific discoveries of that time. The evaluation of this museum should not be
  based on A. Kircher’s contribution to natural sciences and humanities, but by the way the
  interior was decorated, how artfully the exhibits were selected and presented, how masterfully
  the visual and sound effects were thought out. In addition, historians do not sufficiently connect
  the museum with the extensive written heritage of A. Kircher, who previously outlined
  his model of the world order in a series of illustrated folios, which together formed a virtual
  museum, transformed by the author into the Musaeum Kircherianum, replacing book illustrations
  with an objective row. The sources of the proposed reconstruction of the museum are
  cosmological, scientific, linguistic and historical works of A. Kircher, notes of travelers, and
  museum catalogues of 1678–1878.
