Book excerpt: Im Zuge des cultural turn sind Erinnern und Vergessen zu Leitthemen der Kulturwissenschaften geworden. Das Gedächtnis-Paradigma, das sich in der Auseinandersetzung mit Maurice Halbwachs' Studien zu den 'sozialen Rahmen' der Erinnerung entwickelte, hat ein transdisziplinäres Forschungsinteresse hervorgebracht, das die verschiedenen Fächer aus ihrer jeweils spezifischen Perspektive verfolgen. An dieser Entwicklung hat Aleida Assmann entscheidenden Anteil. In dem Band Arbeit am Gedächtnis greifen Forscherinnen und Forscher aus Ägyptologie, Judaistik, Geschichte, Soziologe, Psychologie, Literatur- und Medienwissenschaften Fragestellungen und Konzepte Aleida Assmanns auf und zeigen so das weite Panorama der kulturwissenschaftlichen Gedächtnisforschung. Zu den behandelten Themen gehören 'Individuelles und kollektives Gedächtnis', 'Gedächtniskulturen', 'Geschichte und Trauma', 'Generation und Erinnerung' sowie 'Literarische und filmische Gedächtnisarbeit'.
Book Synopsis Cultural Memory and Historical Consciousness in the German-speaking World Since 1500 by : Christian Emden
Download or read book Cultural Memory and Historical Consciousness in the German-speaking World Since 1500 written by Christian Emden and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first of three volumes based on papers given at the conference 'The Fragile Tradition: The German Cultural Imagination Since 1500' in Cambridge, 2002. Together they provide a conspectus of current research on the cultural, historical and literary imagination of the German-speaking world across the whole of the modern period. This volume highlights the ways in which cultural memory and historical consciousness have been shaped by experiences of discontinuity, focusing particularly on the reception of the Reformation, the literary and ideological heritage of the Enlightenment, and the representation of war, the Holocaust, and the reunification of Germany in contemporary literature and museum culture.

Book Synopsis Nietzsche on Memory and History by : Anthony K. Jensen
Download or read book Nietzsche on Memory and History written by Anthony K. Jensen and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-12-07 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History and memory rank as central themes in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. As one of the last philosophers of the 19th century, Nietzsche naturally belongs to the so-called ‘historical century’. The contentious exchange with the past and with antiquity – as much as the mechanisms, the dangers, and the lessons of memory and tradition – are continually examined and stand in close relationship with Nietzsche’s vision of life and his project of human development. As Jacob Burckhardt once wrote of the cultural critique to his Basel colleague: "Fundamentally, you are always teaching history" (9/13/1882). Following Burckhardt’s judgment, the contributors focus on the analysis of core questions in the philosophies of history and memory, and their respective convergence in the thought of Nietzsche. The epistemological relevance of these central concepts will be thematized alongside those concerning tradition, and education. The discussion of these rich themes unifies a broad spectrum of questions, ranging from cultural memory to contemporary philosophy of mind. The contributions are revised versions of selected papers presented at the 2018 conference of the annual meeting of the Nietzsche Society in Naumburg.

Focusing on the politics of war memory and commemoration, the book illuminates the struggle to install particular memories at the centre of a cultural world, and offers an extensive argument about how the politics of commemoration practices should be understood.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paper Memory tells the story of one man’s mission to preserve for posterity the memory of everyday life in sixteenth-century Germany. Matthew Lundin takes us inside the mind of an undistinguished German burgher named Hermann Weinsberg, whose personal writings allow us to witness firsthand the great transformations of early modernity: the crisis of the Reformation, the rise of an urban middle class, and the information explosion of the print revolution. This sensitive, faithful portrait reveals a man who sought to make sense of the changes that were unsettling the foundations of his world. Weinsberg’s decision to undertake the monumental task of documenting his life was astonishing, since he was neither prince nor bishop, but a Catholic lawyer from Cologne with no special claim to fame or fortune. Although he knew that his contemporaries would consider his work vain and foolish, he dutifully recorded the details of his existence, from descriptions of favorite meals to catalogs of his sleeping habits, from the gossip of quarreling neighbors to confessions of his private hopes, fears, and beliefs. More than fifty years—and thousands of pages—later, Weinsberg conferred his Gedenkbuch, or Memory Book, to his descendants, charging them to ensure its safekeeping, for without his careful chronicle, “it would be as if we had never been.” Desperate to save his past from oblivion, Weinsberg hoped to write himself into the historical record. Paper Memory rescues this not-so-ordinary man from obscurity, as Lundin’s perceptive and graceful prose recovers his extraordinary story.
Book Synopsis Religious Institutes and Catholic Culture in 19th- and 20th-Century Europe by : Urs Altermatt
Download or read book Religious Institutes and Catholic Culture in 19th- and 20th-Century Europe written by Urs Altermatt and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2014-03-05 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A broad perspective on the role of religious institutes in social and cultural practices This volume examines the cultural contribution of religious institutes, men and women religious, and their role in the constitution of Catholic communities of communication in different European countries (England, Germany, Liechtenstein, the Low Countries, the Nordic Countries, Switzerland). The articles focus on social and cultural history by comparing both discourses and cultural and social practices, as well as examining international networks and cultural transference. How did religious institutes function as cultural elites in the production and mediation of knowledge, ideologies, cultural codes, and practices? What kind of discursive and operational strategies did they use to help construct and propagate social Catholicism, ultramontanism, and confessionalism, and to establish and promote the Catholic communication system? What were the central mechanisms in the production of knowledge and how were they incorporated within identity politics? The volume also takes a broad perspective on the role of religious institutes in the production and propagation of religious, cultural, and social practices, and in the socialisation of the Catholic population. The focus is on cultural practices, on the transmission and transformation of attitudes, and on the rites and customs in everyday religious and social practices.

Book Synopsis Germany's Conscience by : Reinbert Krol
Download or read book Germany's Conscience written by Reinbert Krol and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2021-06-30 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questions of truth, ethics, state power, and propaganda, of how to render account of catastrophes and reconcile oneself with one's past are not only crucial to our time, they were also central to the German historian Friedrich Meinecke (1862-1954). Probably no generation of historians before Meinecke had lived through more unsettling transformations, during which these questions were most pressing. Reinbert Krol's analysis of Meinecke's intellectual development does not only give us insight into his philosophy of history - which turns out to be more conciliatory than previously assumed - it can also be a source of inspiration for scholars of history today.
Book Synopsis On Autobiographical Memory by : Anita Kasabova
Download or read book On Autobiographical Memory written by Anita Kasabova and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-05-27 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to provide an account of autobiographical memory, the memory of episodes in the subject's autobiography and to answer the following questions: what happens when we remember something? Why do we remember some things rather than others? The main assumptions in this book are that autobiographical memory is an active structure of a representational nature and that autobiographical memory is a construct of the imagination enabled by a semantic principle: the ground-consequence relation. Anita Kasabova reconstructs the epistemological accounts of memory by the Prague philosopher and mathematician, Bernard Bolzano and the Prague physiologist Ewald Hering as well as the phenomenological accounts by Edmund Husserl and Roman Ingarden, and discusses various accounts put forward within analytic philosophy. She examines the trace theory and its relation to the phenomenology of autobiographical memory and the different temporal perspectives that characterize this form of memory.Kasabova formulates a philosophical explication of how autobiographical memory works, dealing with issues such as: 'what are the defining features of autobiographical memory?'; 'how is it structured and how does it function?'; 'what is a recollection and what are the necessary and (for the most part) sufficient conditions for a recollection to occur?' Kasabova argues that such conditions are a sense of self and a sense of connectedness of the self that is semantic rather than causal, the subject's sense of ownership of past experiences and the capacity of imagination: for mental time travel and thinking about past episodes, you have to be able to produce representations not bound to the current situation. It is argued that access to the subject's personal past cannot occur otherwise than by construction in imagination. In order to reproduce a past experience in the present, imagination is necessary for representing a past episode as if it were present. Other necessary conditions for autobiographical memory are time-awareness, a continuous temporal reference frame, a successive temporal order and the capacity to refer back to previous positions in time. Finally, semantic relations of part-whole and ground-consequence are crucial for explaining autobiographical memory. It is argued that the part-whole relation is the principle of the memory trace and that the grounding relation co-ordinates the subject's perspective on past episodes in recollective statements. Kasabova argues that autobiographical memory is basically semantic, as it is grounded by and constructed through a 'sense-making' relation expressed by the explanatory conjunct 'because': we recall certain experiences or actions rather than other because we are sensitive to the reasons for having experienced it. The new book by Anita Kasabova fills a gap between traditional philosophical armchair speculations about memory and contemporary cognitive theories, which have grown out of extensive experimental research.The book's main idea that autobiographical memory is not a mere recollection but rather an active reconstruction of our past memories is not an entirely new one. Anita Kasabova, however, provides a new take on this idea by revealing that the theories of Bolzano, Hering, and Husserl not only bear historical significance but, properly reconstructed, they might be viewed as an important contribution to the contemporary interdisciplinary studies of memory.An appreciable achievement of the book is the chosen conceptual framework: it makes the idiosyncratic language of Bolzano and Husserl accessible to contemporary cognitive scientists as well as making the recent cognitive theories understandable for the traditional philosophical scholars. Even if this were the only achievement of Anita Kasabova (and it is not) it would represent her monograph as a book of a great merit for a large community of memory scholars. Assoc.

Book Synopsis Childhood, Youth and Migration by : Christine Hunner-Kreisel
Download or read book Childhood, Youth and Migration written by Christine Hunner-Kreisel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-15 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows the different ways in which migration matters in the context of global and local childhood and youth. Furthermore, it highlights that childhood, youth and migration as well as local and global perspectives need to be thought and analyzed together, to address the significant dimensions of social inequality in the context of growing up. Migration as a phenomenon is most often motivated by the search for a better life. Very often children and young people, migrating alone or together with their families, migrate to ameliorate their own or others’ living conditions and seize opportunities for realizing a good life. Today as well as in the past this search for a better life is very often triggered by socio-economic reasons, war or terrorism. Against the backdrop of the topic raised above the book deals with children and young people’s own perspective in countries of migration. It promotes the idea of connecting global and local issues of childhood and youth with a special focus on questions of education. It studies questions of global and local living and highlights living circumstances shaped by patterns of migration and mobility.
