Condition: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 392 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | The revival of interest in collective cultural memories since the 1980s has been a genuinely global phenomenon. Cultural memories can be defined as the social constructions of the past that allow individuals and groups to orient themselves in time and space. The investigation of cultural memories has necessitated an interdisciplinary perspective, though geographical questions about the spaces, places, and landscapes of memory have acquired a special significance. The essays in this volume, written by leading anthropologists, geographers, historians, and psychologists, open a range of new interpretations of the formation and development of cultural memories from ancient times to the present day. The volume is divided into five interconnected sections. The first section outlines the theoretical considerations that have shaped recent debates about cultural memory. The second section provides detailed case studies of three key themes: the founding myths of the nation-state, the contestation of national collective memories during periods of civil war, and the oral traditions that move beyond national narrative. The third section examines the role of World War II as a pivotal episode in an emerging European cultural memory. The fourth section focuses on cultural memories in postcolonial contexts beyond Europe. The fifth and final section extends the study of cultural memory back into premodern tribal and nomadic societies.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Cultural memories are social constructions of the past which allow human beings both personally and collectively to orient themselves in time and space. This book focusses on the role of spatiality and places for cultural memories. It offers new insights to the formation and development of cultural memories in ancient and modern societies. The book concentrates on theoretical considerations how cultural memories should be conceptualised, includes three case studies to apply these concepts to three very different contexts, focuses on the question of an emerging, distinct European cultural memory, its variances and especially the role of World War II for its origination, studies cultural memories in post-colonial contexts outside Europe, and offers insides on cultural memories in tribal, nomadic societies before or on the edge of Neolithic revolution. Cultural memories are social constructions of the past which allow humans personally and collectively to orient themselves in time and space. In this book, scholars in anthropology, egyptology, geography, history, political science and psychology offer new insights to the formation and development of cultural memories in ancient and modern societies, focusing on the role of spatiality and places. Part I covers theoretical considerations of how cultural memories should be conceptualised. Part II offers three case studies that apply these concepts to different contexts: the founding myth of a nation, contested memories related to a civil war, and oral traditions not referring to a national narrative. Part III details an emerging, distinct European cultural memory, its variances and the role of WW II for its origin. Part IV studies cultural memories in post-colonial contexts outside Europe. Part V probes cultural memories in tribal, nomadic societies before or near Neolithic revolution.…
