Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Geschichte Deutschlands - Nachkriegszeit, Kalter Krieg, Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Denkmäler begegnen uns fast überall. In verschiedensten Formen sollen sie uns an die Vergangenheit erinnern, an berühmte Persönlichkeiten oder historisch bedeutungsvolle Ereignisse. Denkmäler geben zugleich aber auch Auskunft, was die Gesellschaft für erinnerungswürdig hält und welche Bedeutung sie dem zu Erinnernden beimisst. Dadurch wird in und mit einem Denkmal indirekt auch die Gesellschaft und ihre aktuell geltenden Normen selbst abgebildet. Die Planung und Umsetzung eines Denkmales ist mit vielen Fragen und Entscheidungen verbunden: Wessen will man gedenken? Wo ist ein geeigneter Platz? Welche Form soll das Denkmal erhalten? Was für ein Bild soll das Denkmal der Zukunft vermitteln? Diese Fragen stellten sich im besonderen Maße auch beim Berliner Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden. Das sogenannte Holocaustdenkmal ist heute eines der bekanntesten und bedeutendsten Denkmäler Deutschlands. In dieser Arbeit wird zum einen der langwierige, konfliktreiche Weg der Umsetzung, zum anderen auch die Wirkung und Bedeutung des Denkmales betrachtet werden. Zentral ist dabei auch die Frage, wie und in welchem Umfang ein Denkmal Erinnerungsarbeit leisten kann.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extraordinary story of courage, forgiveness and reconciliation. Sabina Wolanski was just 12 years old when her home town in Poland was invaded by Nazis. In her diary, along with innocent adolescent longings, she recorded what happened next: the humiliations and terrors, the murder of her beloved family and the startling story of her own survival. Leaving Europe after the war, Sabina forged a new life in Australia, juggling a thriving design business, her family, and an unorthodox love life. But as time wore on, she began asking herself why had she survived when so many died? And what kind of justice fitted such crimes? In May 2005, when Germany opened its controversial Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, in Berlin, Sabina was chosen to speak as the voice of the six million dead. In her speech she noted that although the Holocaust had taken everything she valued, it had also taught her that hatred and discrimination are doomed to fail. Her ability to survive, to love, and to live well, has been her greatest triumph. 'I couldn't put down this engaging, honest story of love, loss and survival.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traces the debate concerning the Holocaust memorial in Berlin. The first proposal, in 1988, to establish a memorial on the terrain of the former Gestapo headquarters was rejected. In 1990 a new site was chosen, situated between the Brandenburg Gate and the former Reichskanzlei. A discourse arose on the issue of commemorating the murder of the Sinti and Roma along with the Holocaust of European Jewry, but was discontinued. In 1994-95 a first attempt at implementation was launched in the form of a competition, the results of which were sharply criticized and vetoed by Chancellor Kohl. A second attempt was undertaken between 1996-98, but failed as well. Mentions the Walser-Bubis debate, and an additional discourse which arose on the Nazi past as a source for retrieving national identity. A third attempt took place in 1998-99, with the proposal of a museum instead of a monument. The government finally decided in June 1999 to erect a memorial according to Peter Eisenman's concept, and to found an endowment for the operation of the memorial.

Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2006 im Fachbereich Ethnologie / Volkskunde, Note: 2, Universität Wien (europäische ethnologie volkskunde), Veranstaltung: Exkursion "Empirische Verfahren", 14 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Dieser Absatz eines Tucholsky Gedichtes zeigt auf humorige Art und Weise wie kulturelle Imaginationen von Menschen Geschichte und Geschichten schreiben. Die Stadt ist von Menschen erbaut, durch Menschen erdacht über Menschen interpretiert und gedeutet. Jede Zeit imprägniert und perforiert ihre Wünsche, ihre kulturellen, sozialen und politischen in das Stadtbild. Die Zeit als seelenloses Metronom? Mitnichten. Die Stadt ist ein einziges Projektionsfeld und Konstrukt von Zeitzeugen, die beständig bewusst und unbewusst ihrer Stadt Zeichen, Symbole und Stempel einprägen. Das ist eines der Themen von Stadtethnologie. Ist der ethnologische Blick ein archäologischer? Er versucht, mit dem Pinsel und einer Spachtel, die aus Fremd- und Selbstbeobachtung besteht, Schichten freizulegen, die deutungskonfiguriert und konstituiert unter- neben und ineinander liegen. "Der Mensch, das Augentier, erkundete das Panorama der Zeit, um seinen Horizont zu erweitern; Tatsachen-, Schatzsucher-, Merkwürdigkeits- und Sammelblick prägen die Optik". (Jeggle 1984:11). Die Exkursionswoche in Berlin wurde aus diesem Blickwinkel erlebt und in einem quasi kleinen Laborversuch von den Studierenden erforscht. Die Entstehung des Holocaust Mahnmals, das ein Erinnerungsmal, ein Denk- und auch ein Zukunftsmal (unbekannter Gestalt) ist, zeigt über die zuweilen diskursreiche Form ihres Entstehens, die Geschichten von Menschen, die ihrerseits zu Bedeutungsträgern werden. Ich gehe soweit, zu sagen, dass jeder Besucher des Mahnmal, ob zustimmend, ablehnend oder gleichgültig, Historie und Kultur neu erzeugt. Gerne hätte ich in meiner Arbeit auf jene Erfahrungsbilder verwiesen, sie erzählen können. Dies war in dem vorhandenen Zeitrahmen nicht gangbar. Was jedoc

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1989, two sites of memory with respect to the deportation and persecution of Jews in France and Germany during the Second World War have received intense public attention: the Vélo d'Hiver (Winter Velodrome) in Paris and the Monument for the Murdered Jews of Europe or Holocaust Monument in Berlin. Why is this so? Both monuments, the author argues, are unique in the history of memorial projects. Although they are genuine "sites of memory", neither monument celebrates history, but rather serve as platforms for the deliberation, negotiation and promotion of social consensus over the memorial status of war crimes in France and Germany. The debates over these monuments indicate that it is the communication among members of the public via the mass media, rather than qualities inherent in the sites themselves, which transformed these sites into symbols beyond traditional conceptions of heritage and patriotism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Memorial to the Murdered Jews in Berlin, inaugurated in 2005, and the Monument to the Victims of State Terrorism within the Memory Park (Parque de la Memoria) in Buenos Aires, partially unveiled in 2007, have been controversial from start to finish. While these sites differ in many respects, Germany and Argentina share a history of dictatorial regimes that murdered civilians on a massive scale. The Nazis implemented the genocide of millions of Jews and other minorities during World War II. In Argentina, the junta-led state repression was responsible for the “disappearance” and subsequent murder of thousands of civilians between 1976 and 1983. Decades later, new governments in Germany and Argentina acknowledged the responsibility of their respective states for these mass murders by memorializing the victims with a national monument in the capital city for the first time. This study of two memorials develops a model and method for analyzing the memorialization of recent tragedies that share several basic characteristics: the state creates a self-indicting national memorial to the victims of state-sponsored mass murder in the absence of their bodies. Analyzed as sites of conflicting performances and as performances themselves, these memorials illuminate the ways in which people engage with them, and how an architecture of absence triggers embodied memory through somatic experience. While death tourism and architourism are a key to their success in attracting visitors, they also pose a threat to their commemorative role. Besides assessing the success and failure of these memorials, Sion explores the ways in which these sites are paradigmatic and offers a model for analyzing a transnational circuit of commemorative practices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disciplining the Holocaust examines critics' efforts to defend a rigorous and morally appropriate image of the Holocaust. Rather than limiting herself to polemics about the "proper" approach to traumatic history, Karyn Ball explores recent trends in intellectual history that govern a contemporary ethics of scholarship about the Holocaust. She examines the scholarly reception of Goldhagen's Hitler's Willing Executioners, the debates culminating in Eisenman's Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin, Lyotard's response to negations of testimony about the gas chambers, psychoanalytically informed frameworks for the critical study of traumatic history, and a conference on feminist approaches to the Holocaust and genocide. Ball's book bridges the gap between psychoanalysis and Foucault's understanding of disciplinary power in order to highlight the social implications of traumatic history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a study of the Berlin Holocaust Memorial Competitions of the 1990s, with a focus on designs that kindle empathetic responses. Through analysis of provocative designs, the book engages with issues of empathy, secondary witnessing, and depictions of concentration camp iconography. It explores the relationship between empathy and cultural memory when representations of suffering are notably absent. The book submits that one design represents the idea of an uncanny memorial, and also pays attention to viewer co-authorship in counter-monuments. Analysis of counter-monuments also include their creative engagement with German history and their determination to defy fascist aesthetics. As the winning design for The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe is abstract with an information centre, there is an exploration of the memorial museum. Callaghan asks whether this configuration is intended to compensate for the abstract memorial’s ambiguity or to complement the design’s visceral potential. Other debates explored concern political memory, national memory, and the controversy of dedicating the memorial exclusively to murdered Jews.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coming to terms with a troubled past is the mark of the modern condition. But how does memory operate? This powerful collection of original essays probes this question by focusing on Germany, where historical trauma and political turbulence over the past century have deeply scarred modern memory and identity. Tracing the role of memory in German history between the Reformation and reunification, contributors show how memory has a history and the presence of the past has historical context. With scholarly zeal and keen insight, these essays draw on ghost stories and the postwar fiction of Heinrich Böll, among other memory sites, escorting the reader through the streets of Alt Hildesheim and the grocery aisles of East Germany. By historicizing memory, this volume surpasses the efforts of previous memory scholarship in confronting Germany's National Socialist past. Standard approaches to memory in modern Germany have explored how the past represents social relations and is commemorated in literature, art, and personal narrative. In taking memory "out of the museum" and "beyond the monument," The Work of Memory investigates the ways memory forms social relations and is integral to the construction of identities, communities, and policies. Profound and provocative, The Work of Memory contributes to a much-needed anthropology of memory in modern Germany.
