Why do certain works of art make it into the canon while othersjust enjoy a brief moment of recognition, if at all? How domoments produce monuments, and why are monuments erasedfrom our cultural memory in only a moment? Taking into accountthe cultural processes of creating, storing, rememberingand forgetting that are omnipresent and have an immenseinfluence on how we perceive artifacts and cultural events, theessays in this collection analyze the phenomenon of culturalproduction, transmission and reception from various angles,drawing on approaches from both literary and cultural studies.With its transdisciplinary approach, this book uniquely respondsto an everyday cultural phenomenon that so far has not receivedwide-ranging attention.
