Focusing on the "long" nineteenth century, from the French
Revolution to the beginnings of Modernism, this book examines the
significance of memory in this era of turbulent social change.
Through investigation of science, literature, history and the
visual arts, the authors explore theories of memory and the
cultural and literary resonances of memorializing.
Drawing on the work of many of the most influential literary
figures of the period, such as Tennyson, Scott, and Hardy, "Memory
and Memorials" explores key topics such as: gender and memory;
Victorian psychological theories of memory; and cultural
constructions in literature, science, history and architecture.
"Memory and Memorials: From the French Revolution to World War
One" employs a range of new and influential interdisciplinary
methodologies. It offers both a fresh theoretical understanding of
the period, and a wealth of empirical material of use to the
historian, literary critic or social psychologist.
