Manipulation of the past and forced erasure of memories have been
global phenomena throughout history, spanning a varied repertoire
from the destruction or alteration of architecture, sites, and
images, to the banning or imposing of old and new practices. The
present volume addresses these questions comparatively across time
and geography, and combines a material approach to the study of
memory with cross-disciplinary empirical explorations of historical
and contemporary cases. This approach positions the volume as a
reference-point within several fields of humanities and social
sciences. The collection brings together scholars from different
fields within humanities and social science to engage with
memorialization and damnatio memoriae across disciplines, using
examples from their own research. The broad chronological and
comparative scope makes the volume relevant for researchers and
students of several historical periods and geographic regions.
