Routledge Handbook of Memory and Place

"This Handbook is an absolute must for anyone interested in the complex relationship between memory, place and identity. The editors, coming from archaeology, ethnology, history and tourism studies, have assembled an impressive line-up of extremely competent authors who explore this relationship in multi-faceted and multi- as well as inter-disciplinary ways. Relating spatial and temporal identities to questions of memory proves to be extremely fruitful in understanding how people have attempted to make sense of the world around them in its historical evolution. It also underlines in intriguing ways that these processes of sense production were always contested and the subject of intense political conflicts. Thus the Handbook makes a valuable contribution to the re-politicisation of memory discourses in scholarship and in the wider public sphere." Stefan Berger, Professor of Social History and Director of the Institute for Social Movements, Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum, Germany
"This is an innovative, exciting and timely collection which offers a compelling set of approaches, narratives and settings exploring the all-important matter of memory in relation to a range of places across the world. In an era of unprecedented eco-social turbulence/crisis, entangled with conflict, mobility and displacement, digital connectivity, transforming senses of individual and collective identities, and nostalgia based politics, this collection brings approaches across the social sciences and humanities into very telling conversations about the matter of emplaced memories, and key themes such as post-colonialism, embodiment, ritual and identity." Owain Jones, Professor of Environmental Humanities, Bath Spa University Environmental Humanities Research Centre, UK

This Handbook explores the latest cross-disciplinary research on the inter-relationship between memory studies, place, and identity.
In the works of dynamic memory, there is room for multiple stories, versions of the past and place understandings, and often resistance to mainstream narratives. Places may live on long after their physical destruction. This collection provides insights into the significant and diverse role memory plays in our understanding of the world around us, in a variety of spaces and temporalities, and through a variety of disciplinary and professional lenses. Many of the chapters in this Handbook explore place-making, its significance in everyday lives, and its loss. Processes of displacement, where people's place attachments are violently torn asunder, are also considered. Ranging from oral history to forensic anthropology, from folklore studies to cultural geographies and beyond, the chapters in this Handbook reveal multiple and often unexpected facets of the fascinating relationship between place and memory, from the individual to the collective.
This is a multi- and intra-disciplinary collection of the latest, most influential approaches to the interwoven and dynamic issues of place and memory. It will be of great use to researchers and academics working across Geography, Tourism, Heritage, Anthropology, Memory Studies, and Archaeology.
