This book was released on 2022-05-20 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les pertes inouïes de la Grande Guerre ont entraîné la généralisation de pratiques embryonnaires auparavant : individualisation des sépultures, construction de monuments commémoratifs, multiplication des rites. Des chercheurs de nombreux pays étudient les traces de cette rupture majeure, encore largement visible dans les paysages. Tombes, cénotaphes, nécropoles, monuments et mémoriaux en représentent le témoignage matériel et culturel. Anthropologues, historiens, archéologues, spécialistes du tourisme de mémoire, retracent comment a été remémorée ce que l’on croyait être la vision du monde des disparus, du sacrifice au pacifisme. La comparaison internationale et diachronique, de la Seconde Guerre mondiale au génocide du Rwanda, donne toute leur importance à ces sites, au moment où ceux du front occidental belge et français sont candidats à entrer au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO. Ces témoins des consciences traversées par le malheur des guerres sont l’espoir de la réconciliation humaniste.

Download or read book The Great War in History written by Jay Winter and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-03 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised and updated edition of The Great War in History provides the first survey of historical interpretations of the Great War from 1914 to 2020. It demonstrates how the history of the Great War has now gone global, and how the internet revolution has affected the way we understand the conflict. Jay Winter and Antoine Prost assess not only diplomatic and military studies but also the social and cultural interpretations of the war across academic and popular history, family history, and public history, including at museums, on the stage, on screen, in art, and at sites of memory. They provide a fascinating case study of the practice of history and the first survey of the ways in which the Centenary deepened and deflected both public and professional interpretations of the war. This will be essential reading for scholars and students in history, war studies, European history and international relations.

Book excerpt: Nearly 1,600 Americans who took part in the Vietnam War are still missing and presumed dead. Sarah Wagner tells the stories of those who mourn and continue to search for them.

Download or read book Memory Fragmentation from Below and Beyond the State written by Anne Bazin and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-22 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume suggests a model of collective memory that distinguishes between two conceptual logics of memory fragmentation: vertical fragmentation and horizontal fragmentation. It offers a series of case studies of conflict and post-conflict collective memory, shedding light on the ways various actors participate in the production, dissemination, and contestation of memory discourses. With attention to the characteristics of both vertical and horizontal memory fragmentation, the book addresses the plurality of diverging, and often conflicting, memory discourses that are produced within the public sphere of a given community. It analyzes the juxtaposition, tensions, and interactions between narratives produced beyond or below the central state, often transcending national boundaries. The book is structured according to the type of actors involved in a memory fragmentation process. It explores how states have been trying to produce and impose memory discourses on civil societies, sometimes even against the experiences of their own citizens, and how such efforts as well as backlash from actors below and beyond the state have led to horizontal and vertical memory fragmentation. Furthermore, it considers the attempts by states’ representatives to reassert control of national memory discourses and the subsequent resistances they face. As such, this volume will appeal to sociology and political science scholars interested in memory studies in post-conflict societies.

Download or read book Experiencing 11 November 2018 written by Shanti Sumartojo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a unique collection of international and interdisciplinary research, this book focuses on commemorative events around the world on the same day: 11 November 2018, the centenary of Armistice Day, the end of the First World War. It argues that we need to move beyond discourse, narrative and how historical events are represented to fully understand what commemoration does, socially, politically and culturally. Adopting an experiential reframing treats sensory, affective and emotional feelings as fundamental to how we collectively understand shared histories, and through them, shared identities. The volume features 15 case studies from ten countries, covering a variety of settings and national contexts specific to the First World War. Together the chapters demonstrate that a new conceptualisation of commemoration is needed: one that attends to how it feels.
Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Museums Heritage and Death written by Trish Biers and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-26 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive examination of death, dying, and human remains in museums and heritage sites around the world. Presenting a diverse range of contributions from scholars, practitioners, and artists, the book reminds us that death and the dead body are omnipresent in museum and heritage spaces. Chapters appraise collection practices and their historical context, present global perspectives and potential resolutions, and suggest how death and dying should be presented to the public. Acknowledging that professionals in the galleries, libraries, archives, and museums (GLAM) fields are engaging in vital discussions about repatriation and anti-colonialist narratives, the book includes reflections on a variety of deathscapes that are at the forefront of the debate. Taking a multivocal approach, the handbook provides a foundation for debate as well as a reference for how the dead are treated within the public arena. Most important, perhaps, the book highlights best practices and calls for more ethical frameworks and strategies for collaboration, particularly with descendant communities. The Routledge Handbook of Museums, Heritage, and Death will be useful to all individuals working with, studying, and interested in curation and exhibition at museums and heritage sites around the world. It will be of particular interest to those working in the fields of heritage, museum studies, death studies, archaeology, anthropology, sociology, and history.

Book excerpt: L'art funéraire change de caractère à partir du XIVe siècle.

Etudie les créations majeures dues aux rois et aux grands, mais aussi les monuments élevés par le petite noblesse ou l'élite urbaine.
Download or read book Liens personnels r seaux solidarit s en France et dans les les britanniques XIe XXe si cle written by GDR 2136 (Groupe de recherche) and published by Publications de la Sorbonne. This book was released on 2006 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rivalités et conflits ont laissé une empreinte profonde sur l'histoire des relations entre la France et les îles Britanniques et occupent encore une place considérable dans l'historiographie.L'étude des liens personnels, des réseaux et des solidarités, dans un contexte marqué par l'influence des sciences sociales, permet peut-être d'ouvrir l'horizon sur d'autres perspectives, et de reconstituer, entre ces deux espaces, des échanges que la documentation ne laisse pas toujours directement appréhender. Grâce aux travaux comparatistes, elle peut aussi contribuer à renouveler la compréhension de phénomènes longtemps perçus de manière isolée par les écoles historiques française et britannique. La table ronde organisée par le Groupe de recherche 2136 du CNRS " France-îles Britanniques " en mai 2002 à l'université de Glasgow, s'est précisément donné ce thème de réflexion pour objet : les seize communications d'historiens français et britanniques réunies dans ce volume abordent des notions qui vont de l'individu à la parenté en passant par l'amitié, le voisinage, la cour, l'entourage noble, l'" affinité ", la clientèle, le cercle littéraire, et cela à partir de sources d'une extrême diversité - actes de la pratique, correspondance, héraldique, images, récits, journaux intimes.Le choix délibéré d'un temps long, du Moyen Age au XXe siècle, permet aussi de confronter les évolutions sociales comme des méthodes historiographiques souvent très différentes. Le recours à des grilles de lecture variées, qu'il s'agisse de la méthode de la network analysis ou de la prosopographie, fait surgir des liens souvent discrets, ou bien activés dans des circonstances très spécifiques, comme la succession, et permet de mieux cerner le contexte de développements connus par ailleurs, comme l'invention scientifique ou la circulation des idées politiques. En dernier ressort, c'est peut-être au coeur d'un faisceau d'approches et d'expériences diverses que la notion de réseau peut se révéler la plus efficace.
