This edited collection makes a progressive intervention into the
interdisciplinary field of memory studies with a series of essays
drawn from diverse theoretical, practitional and cultural
backgrounds. The most seminal critical development within memory
studies in recent years has arguably been the turn towards
transculturalism. This movement engenders a series of methodologies
that posit remembrance as a fluid process in which commemorative
tropes work to inform the representation of diverse events and
traumas beyond national or cultural boundaries, transcending - but
not negating - spatial, temporal and ideational differences.
Examining a wide range of historical and cultural contexts, the
essays in this collection focus on the dialogues that shape
processes of remembrance between and beyond borders, critiquing the
problems and possibilities inherent in current discourses in
memorial practice and theory as they approach the challenge of
transculturalism.
