Book excerpt: The twentieth century, perhaps more than any other, was shaped by war and conflict. In particular, the two world wars have had a profound influence on the development of world history, especially in western Europe. The aim of Memory and Memorials, however, is not to seek the effects war has had on the twentieth century, but rather to explore how societies chose to remember wars and manipulate this memory for political and cultural purposes. Tackling issues of actual memory, distorted memory and reconstructions of the past, the use and nature of the war memorial, and the reflection of all these points in selected art, literature and film, the main theme of Memory and Memorials is to stress both continuity and change in memory and memorial.

Download or read book Memorials of the Great War in Britain written by Alex King and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-04 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking as its focus memorials of the First World War in Britain, this book brings a fresh approach to the study of public symbols by exploring how different motives for commemorating the dead were reconciled through the processes of local politics to create a widely valued form of collective expression. It examines how the memorials were produced, what was said about them, how support for them was mobilized and behaviour around them regulated. These memorials were the sites of contested, multiple and ambiguous meanings, yet out of them a united public observance was created. The author argues that this was possible because the interpretation of them as symbols was part of a creative process in which new meanings for traditional forms of memorial were established and circulated. The memorials not only symbolized emotional responses to the war, but also ambitions for the post-war era. Contemporaries adopted new ways of thinking about largely traditional forms of memorial to fit the uncertain social and political climate of the inter-war years.This book represents a significant contribution to the study of material culture and memory, as well as to the social and cultural history of modern warfare.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glasgow Memorials Caledonia, published in 1824, gave an account of Glasgow and its ecclesiastical arrangements, he had to supple ment information obtainable from a limited command of ancient manuscripts by accepting the statements of local historians who had little opportunity of consulting original sources, and the learned author was thereby betrayed into a few inaccuracies. Gathering historical particulars in those days was no easy task, but in the eighty and odd years which have since intervened, facilities in that direction have accumulated, and with the extended knowledge brought within our reach most of the mistakes of previous writers may now be safely avoided. In systematic research the Maitland Club broke ground, in 1832, with the publication of extracts from the Municipal Records.
