Formen der Erinnerung
Content:
Be it the Hanseatic League, the Bismarck monument in Hamburg or the Battle of Dybbøl - Northern Germany hosts a number of places of remembrance out of whose complex stratifications identity structures emerged in the federal states of Lower Saxony, Hamburg, Bremen, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Schleswig-Holstein. The authors of this volume enquire into these places of memory in Northern Germany, looking into the multi-layered connections between places, actors and recollections - and into blank spaces of remembrance. They are concerned with how themes and mechanisms of remembrance interlock and thus weave local and regional narratives into a complete picture. The mutual shaping and dependencies of space and memory has become a commonplace notion since the "spatial turn" in cultural studies; this anthology is the first to address this guiding theme and in such breadth for the northern German states
