"Memory in Culture" is an introduction to one of the most exciting
new interdisciplinary fields of research: cultural memory studies.
Who was Maurice Halbwachs, and what are the "social frameworks of
memory"? What can Aby Warburg's work tell us about the "memory of
art"? How do Pierre Nora's "lieux de memoire" connect history and
memory? Where does the ancient art of memory meet the
neurosciences? How do media shape our most personal memories? And
can remembrance become globalized? "Memory in Culture" addresses
these and many other questions about the socio-cultural dimensions
of remembering, offering a unique overview of the history and
theory of memory studies. With the concise presentation of key
concepts from history, sociology, political sciences, anthropology,
psychology, literary, art and media studies, it documents current
international and interdisciplinary memory research in an
unprecedented way.
