Pedagogies of Public Memory explores opportunities for writing and
rhetorical education at museums, archives, and memorials. Readers
will follow students working and writing at well-known sites of
international interest (e.g., the Flight 93 National Memorial in
Shanksville, Pennsylvania, and the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum),
at local sites (e.g., vernacular memorials in and around Muncie,
Indiana and the Central Pennsylvania African American Museum in
Reading, Pennsylvania), and in digital spaces (e.g., Florida State
University's Postcard Archive and The Women's Archive Project at
the University of Nebraska Omaha). From composing and delivering
museum tours, to designing online memorials that challenge
traditional practices of public grief, to producing and publishing
a magazine containing the photographs and stories of individuals
who lived through historic moments in the Freedom Struggle, to
expanding and creating new public archives - the pedagogical
projects described in this volume create richly textured learning
opportunities for students at all levels - from first-year writers
to graduate students. The students and faculty whose work is
represented in this volume undertake to reposition the past in the
present and to imagine possible new futures for themselves and
their communities. By exploring the production of public memory,
this volume raises important new questions about the intersection
of rhetoric and remembrance.
