Intersections in Basic and Applied Memory Research

Intersections in Basic and Applied Memory Research

In recent years there has been increasing interaction between basic and applied memory researchers ranging from heated debates to highly productive collaborations. This collection of papers - based on presentations at the Third Practical Aspects of Memory conference - reviews the progress as well as obstacles to progress in the ongoing collaboration between basic and applied memory researchers. This volume represents the state of the art in memory research domains that straddle the basic-applied divide. The text is organized around three themes including theoretical and metatheoretical issues concerning the interaction of basic and applied memory research laboratory investigation of real world memory problems and solutions of everyday problems using theoretical concepts derived from basic memory research. The first section illustrates why collaboration between basic and applied memory researchers should be beneficial and provides guidelines for avoiding some of the pitfalls. The second and third sections present some of the most significant contemporary findings by researchers whose work is basic-yet-applicable or applied-yet-theoretically-based. Students and professional memory researchers will find the substantive results to be provocative and theoretically engaging making the information presented in this volume invaluable. These examples of successful application will be of substantial pragmatic value and researchers are certain to be grappling with these issues for years to come. | Intersections in Basic and Applied Memory Research

Excavating the Power of Memory in Japan

Excavating the Power of Memory in Japan

Excavating the power of memory offers a succinct examination of how memory is constructed embedded and disseminated in contemporary Japanese society. The unique range and perspective of this collection will provide an understanding not found elsewhere. It starts with a lucid introduction of how memory plays a political and wider social role in Japan. Four case studies follow. The first takes up the divergence in memory at the national and subnational levels by analysing the memory of the battle of Okinawa and US military accidents in Okinawa prefecture illuminating how memory in the prefecture embeds Okinawans as victims of mainland Japan and of the United States. The second explores whether Japan’s membership of the International Criminal Court represents a shift in the Japanese government’s negative remembrance of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East demonstrating how both courts are largely portrayed as being disconnected in political debates. The third offers an analysis of the surviving letters of the Kamikaze pilots in order to interrogate and compare their presumed identity in the dominant collective memory and their own self-identities. The fourth untangles how the ‘memory of winds’ in Japanese fishing communities remains an expression of social thought that presides over the ‘transmission of meaning’ about fishermen's geographical surroundings. This book was previously published as a special issue of the Japan Forum. | Excavating the Power of Memory in Japan

Materializing Memory in Art and Popular Culture

Materializing Memory in Art and Popular Culture

Memory matters. It matters because memory brings the past into the present and opens it up to the future. But it also matters literally because memory is mediated materially. Materiality is the stuff of memory. Meaningful objects that we love (or hate) function not only as aide-mémoire but are integral to memory. Drawing on previous scholarship on the interrelation of memory and materiality this book applies recent theories of new materialism to explore the material dimension of memory in art and popular culture. The book’s underlying premise is twofold: on the one hand memory is performed mediated and stored through the material world that surrounds us; on the other hand inanimate objects and things also have agency on their own which affects practices of memory as well as forgetting.

Crusades and Memory Rethinking Past and Present

Crusades and Memory Rethinking Past and Present

Crusading was a religious movement involving papal authorization the incentive of remission of sins pious motivation on behalf of the individual and the justification of holy war. Much recent historiography in this area has focused on resolving the questions of what a crusade was and why people went on them. But crusading became a cultural and social phenomenon that changed across time and geographical space. In turn crusading was shaped by the ways specific crusades and their participants were remembered in specific historical contexts. Moreover crusade memory had profound effects on the cultivation of family lineage kinship ties national and regional identity and religious orthodoxy. Integrating memory into crusades scholarship thus offers new ways of exploring the aftermath of war the construction of cultural and social memory the role of women and families in this process and the crusading movement itself. This book explores memory as a methodological means of understanding the crusades. It engages with theories of communicative memory social and cultural memory war commemoration and historical processes of remembering. Contributions explore the variety of cultural forms used in cultivating crusade memory. Material visual liturgical and textual objects are all reflective of crusade culture and the process of crafting its memory and the analysis of such sources is of particular interest. This publication furthers new trends in crusade scholarship which understand the crusades as a broad religious movement that called upon and developed within a wider cultural framework than previously acknowledged. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Medieval History. | Crusades and Memory Rethinking Past and Present

Double Exposure Memory and Photography

Double Exposure Memory and Photography

Over the past decade historians and sociologists have increasingly used visual materials in particular photographs in their work. This volume brings together historians sociologists anthropologists and media and visual scholars to articulate how photography as a practice and as a visual medium can provide insights into national memory collective identities and the historical imagination. This collection allows the reader to trace parallel conceptual developments occurring in the sociology and anthropology of memory and in the history and theory of photography and to illustrate the unique angles of vision these disciplines offer. Photographic images commonly accompany historical accounts from documentaries to family scrapbooks and since the early days of commercial photography pictures have been viewed as tools to capture memories. Later critical writing has challenged this equation by inverting it: photos along with other archival practices were often viewed as falling short of their supposed function as vessels of memory and at times even denounced as devices that distorted memories. How does photography participate in the formation and maintenance of collective identities and shared memory discourses from the family to the nation? Furthermore how can we begin to conceptualize photography's effects on the historical imagination of individuals and groups? Double Exposure endeavors to answer these questions by calling attention to the variety of contexts in which images circulate and to the narratives from which they spring and which they in turn shape. This is the latest volume in Transaction's Memory and Narrative series. | Double Exposure Memory and Photography

European Memory in Populism Representations of Self and Other

European Memory in Populism Representations of Self and Other

European Memory in Populism explores the links between memory and populism in contemporary Europe. Focusing on circulating ideas of memory especially European memory in contemporary populist discourses the book also analyses populist ideas in sites and practices of remembrance that usually tend to go unnoticed. More broadly the theoretical heart of the book reflects upon the similarities differences and slippages between memory populism nationalism and cultural racism and the ways in which social memory contributes to give substance to various ideas of what constitutes the ‘people’ in populist discourse and beyond. Bringing together a group of political scientists anthropologists and cultural and memory studies scholars the book illuminates the relationship between memory and populism from different angles and in different contexts. The contributors to the volume discuss dominant notions of European heritage that circulate in the public sphere and in political discourse and consider how the politics of fear relates to such notions of European heritage and identity across and beyond Europe and the European Union. Ultimately this volume will shed light on how notions of a shared European heritage and memory can be used not only to include and connect Europeans but also to exclude some of them. Investigating the ways in which nationalist populist forces mobilize the idea of a shared homogeneous European civilization European Memory in Populism will be of interest to scholars and students in the fields of European studies heritage and memory studies migration studies anthropology political science and sociology.
