New Frontiers in Memory Studies Lecture Series
Ann Rigney (Utrecht): Memory activism, moving monuments
May 16, 2019, Frankfurt
Public calls to destroy, refigure, or relocate monuments have recently become a regular feature of our news. This was especially the case in the summer of 2017 when attempts to defend or remove monuments to the Confederacy in the United States led to major public demonstrations. Understanding the mobilising power of monuments challenges cultural memory studies to extend the scope of its analysis from textual and visual representations to the material forms, usual the purview of heritage studies, in which narratives are embodied in public spaces.

Ist das Gedächtnis statisch oder dynamisch? Funktioniert es kognitiv oder emotional? Beherrscht das Gedächtnis den Menschen, oder beherrscht der Mensch das Gedächtnis? Michel Friedman und Kulturwissenschaftlerin Astrid Erll debattieren über das Gedächtnis.
