This interdisciplinary series addresses the relation between media and cultural memory. Its publications study how media construct, store, and disseminate memory. The series' focus is on different media and technologies, such as text and image, the cinema and the new digital media, on transmediality, intermediality, and remediation, as well as on the social (and increasingly transnational and transcultural) contexts of mediated memory. The aim of the series is to provide a vibrant international platform for research and scholarly exchange in the field of media and memory studies. Manuscripts submitted to the series are peer reviewed by expert referees. The editors, Astrid Erll (Goethe-Universitat Frankfurt am Main) and Ansgar Nunning (Justus-Liebig-Universitat Giessen), are working with an international editorial board of renowned scholars: Aleida Assmann (Universitat Konstanz), Mieke Bal (University of Amsterdam), Vita Fortunati (University of Bologna), Richard Grusin (University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee), Udo Hebel (Universitat Regensburg), Andrew Hoskins (University of Glasgow), Wulf Kansteiner (Binghamton University), Alison Landsberg (George Mason University), Claus Leggewie (Kulturwissenschaftliches Institut Essen), Jeffrey Olick (University of Virginia), Susannah Radstone (University of South Australia), Ann Rigney (Utrecht University), Michael Rothberg (University of Illinois), Werner Sollors (Harvard University), Frederic Tygstrup (University of Copenhagen), Harald Welzer (Kulturwissenschaftliches Institut Essen) To learn more about the series, also visit us at the MSA conference in Madrid, June 25 - 28, 2019.

Mit der Frage nach Formen und Funktionen der literarischen Todesmeditation bewegt sich die komparatistisch ausgerichtete Studie im Rahmen einer thematischen Untergruppe der religioesen Meditation, die zunachst nur mit dem allgegenwartigen Topos der Verganglichkeit von Interesse zu sein scheint. Sie stellt jedoch die Betrachtungen des Todes bzw. die Bildlichkeit des Todes in der Meditation in ihren Zusammenhang mit der fruhneuzeitlichen Herausbildung eines "meditativen" Gewissenskonzeptes, um deren Potential zur Individualisierung von Erinnerung zu zeigen. Das meditierende Ich findet hier jenseits des Vanitas- und Memento-mori-Topos ein Strukturmodell fur Selbsterinnerung, das subjektiv-individuelle und rollenhaft-exemplarische Selbstthematisierung verschrankt. Das Konzept des "meditativen Gewissens" ist als verinnerlichter Anspruch an sich selbst zu beschreiben. Dieser fuhrt dazu, dass Sunde als Selbstentfremdung empfunden und in den Bildern von Tod, Verfall und Verwesung als "koerperliche" Selbstentfremdung thematisiert wird. Auf der Basis eines umfangreichen deutsch-, franzoesisch- und englischsprachigen Quellencorpus wird so das Potential der meditatio mortis fur die Individualisierung von Erinnerung untersucht. Die Arbeit zielt insbesondere auf die literarisch-poetologischen Konsequenzen, die die Meditation als Textstruktur impliziert: Charakteristisch ist vor allem das hohe Mass an Selbstreflexivitat und die Bedeutung der anatomischen Perspektive, die die Selbstbetrachtung des meditierenden Ich pragen.

Zwischen Mythos und Geschichte (German, Hardcover): Stephanie Wodianka Zwischen Mythos und Geschichte (German, Hardcover)

The study is concerned with aspects of the culture of memory in the role played by the Middle Ages in literature, drama and film. Its thematic point of reference is the myths surrounding King Arthur (MatiA]re de Bretagne) and Jeanne d'Arc. Wodianka answers the question of the way in which treatments of the Middle Ages are determined by internal medial, chronological or national structures and the extent to which in this a part is played by differing emphases on memory as myth or history. The main focus is on France and Italy, but account is also taken of the German and English-speaking worlds.

Film und kulturelle Erinnerung (German, Hardcover): Astrid Erll, Stephanie Wodianka Film und kulturelle Erinnerung (German, Hardcover)

It is only through certain forms of social use that media become "Media of collective memory." The phenomenon of a "Remembrance film," too (e.g. Das Leben der Anderen, Hotel Ruanda, On connaA(R)t la chanson ) only comes about in a plurimedial context with its incorporation into a complex systemic media network that makes it into a remembrance film through various forms of reference. The volume analyses film using the methodology of studies in cultural memory to reveal the functioning of these constellations.

Cultural encounters are often being stylized not only as experiences of uncontrollability and unpredictability par excellence, but also as challenges to planning and predicting. The history, the different forms and the consequences of this phenomenon are the main issues discussed in this volume. The contributions show that chaos and control are not mutually exclusive in the "contact zone" (Mary Louise Pratt); on the contrary, they stand in relation to each other - be it as a competence or as an interpretive scheme.
