▼ Utah's students, grades 4-12, create projects for the Utah
History Fair, Utah's National
History Day affiliate program, annually. As far as the rigors of youth academic prowess are concerned, National
History Day and the Utah
History Fair are amongst the top in the nation. Within the myriad of projects created by Utah's participating students is important information about what aspects of the past captures students' attention and why they choose to research their selected topics. Through a careful examination of student topics from 1981-1984 and 2009-2012, this project taps into what students comprehend about the past. Further inspection into why students choose their topics, in their own words, explains students' motives for selecting different historical events for research. On a more immediate level, the information gathered and disseminated in this thesis can be used to create stronger Utah
History Fair and National
History Day projects. The evidence also provides additional assistance to those seeking future utilization of the past in the grade school classroom in regards to what students are interested in studying.

▼ Nowadays the media, as cultural phenomena of globalization in the late period of capitalism, have disseminated widely in mass communication with the visual image of past, present and future appear simultaneously, which caused a erasure of
history and consequently a logic of culture in collapse flat that lack of historical perspective. Since the alternative way of life, citizens are far less interested in public affairs and less care about hometown
history. Government developments culture localization to find local arts and culture assets. Working local culture preserves traditional rituals and folklore activities. It is point for us to develop the local culture, to find the past arts and heritages, to save the traditional rituals and folk activities, and to preserve local literary and historical work.
But these were the involvement from top to down by the Stateâs apparatus, which results in losing the identity of community and construction of local culture. When the residentsâ capacity of mobility is insufficient and unwilling to participate the public affairs, also lacking of collective
memory of community
history, by that it cause serious difficulties of the transform to adequate community consciousness. Therefore, we are questioning: What it means the civil
memory? How to construct and preserve it? Because of the planning of local culture archives with ordinary life circle have to offer the residents in promoting the community renaissance, integrating the region cultural resources with tangible and intangible proliferation. Then, we ask, what is the significance of municipal museum of
history in districts? How to save the collective
history and cultural heritage? What should the government implement the policy of museum processing? In case of Kaohsiung Museum of
History (KMH), what is the key statement of and how to achieve the mission of culture sedimentation and civil
memory, are the current problems.
The Purpose of my study is to understand what and how to preserving citizen
memory, and to prove what is the ultimate value of civil recollection in physical and mental items. Applying the qualitative research methods at the case of KMH, the study has to explore the collective constituting and identity of citizen
memory. Literal data collecting, text interpreting, people interview, and direct observation in field, are need. Focusing on citizen memories, urban
history, and museum management, are three essential aspects for our study. The psychological referent of
memory is derivate from
history of the individual and family then extended to the collective memories of city, hence of, the collective constitution of city
history is based on the living existence of each citizen.
In conclusion, KMH should be mainly appreciated to a whole historical view of Kaohsiung as well as of Taiwan in complement. Owing to constructing an adequate urban
history, it is radically postulated to base at ordinary peopleâs lives with supplementation of and contrast to the other culture and arts. For the purpose of KMH to fulfill with…

▼ ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATIONAn Ancient and Glorious Past:Koguryo in the Collective Memories of the Korean PeoplebyHyung-Wook KimDoctor of Philosophy in East Asian Languages and CulturesUniversity of California, Los Angeles, 2012Professor John B. Duncan, ChairScholars generally agree that nationalism first emerged in the late eighteenth century, andthat collective memories shared by members of a society contributed to the formation of modernnationalism. It does not mean, however, that collective memories did not exist before the modernperiod. In contrast to some modernist arguments, long before modern nationalism appeared inKorea, there was distinct evidence of the existence of certain collective memories among literati.Literati's memories of Koguryo throughout the pre-modern period and the influence of Koguryomemories on the formation of Korean nationalism after the late nineteenth century stronglyindicate that collective memory should not be tied to the notion of modern nationalism.It is apparent that since as early as the tenth century, Koryo literati considered Koguryo apart of Korean history, and their recognition of Koguryo appeared in political, cultural, andethnic perspectives. The dynastic change from Koryo to Choson in 1392 did not cast doubt onthe literati's affirmation of Koguryo's position in Korean heritage, and elevated the status ofConfucianism in Choson, even contributing to consolidation of Koguryo memories among theliterati due to Koguryo's connection to the Kija tradition. Although memories of this ancientkingdom were affected by the political situation of the time, especially during the early years ofthe Choson-Ming relationship, Koguryo's status in Korean history was not questioned, and it stillremained historically viable after the notion of the so-called "last bastion" of Confuciancivilization emerged following the Ming's collapse.Unquestionably, it was since the late nineteenth century when Koguryo memories werearguably embedded in the collective memory of Koreans, as Korean nationalists ardently tried totake advantage of Koguryo memories for their independence movements. In this period,Koguryo memories, which had survived since the tenth century, fit well into the model ofcollective memory as presented by Maurice Halbwachs. Additionally, its projection in the lastfew decades, including in the relationship between North and South Korea, as well as Korea andChina regarding the ownership of Koguryo history, demonstrates how the collective memory ofKoguryo has been maintained and still operates vigorously today.

▼ This dissertation is a cultural
history of lynching in African American and white southern
memory. Mob violence had become relatively infrequent by 1940, yet it cast a long shadow over the region in the three decades that followed. By mining cultural sources, from folklore and photographs to my own interviews with the relatives of lynching victims, I uncover the ways in which memories of lynching seeped into contemporary conflicts over race and place during the long Civil Rights Era. The protest and counter-protest movements of the 1950s and 1960s garner most of the attention in discussions of racial violence during this period, but I argue that scholars must also be attentive to the memories of lynching that register on what Ralph Ellison called "the lower frequencies" to fully understand these legacies. For instance, African Americans often shielded their children from the most painful memories of local lynchings but would pass on stories about the vengeful ghosts of lynching victims to express their disgust with these unpunished crimes. By interpreting these memories through the lenses of silence, haunting, violence, and protest, I capture a broad range of legacies, from the subtle to the overt, that illustrate how and why lynching maintained its stranglehold on southern culture. "The Devil is Watching You" offers what I call the "blues sensibility" as an alternative to the Freudian sense of "working through" that dominates the literature on historical trauma. If the blues are, as Ellison defined them, "an impulse to keep the painful details and episodes of a brutal experience alive in one's aching consciousness, to finger its jagged grain, and to transcend it, not by the consolation of philosophy but by squeezing from it a near-tragic, near-comic lyricism," then many black southerners infused a blues element into their memories of lynching. Freud defined psychological recovery as taking control over traumatic memories through narration, but African Americans who spoke out too directly could face violent reprisals. In the enduring spirit of the blues, blacks often confronted these painful memories under the cloak of metaphor and irony to transcend the past, even if just for a spell.

▼ This project considers the memoir as a space that offers multiple memories and histories, allowing the rethinking of a perceived meta-narrative of Canadian history. By reading marginalized voices and generational silences in Maria Campbell's Halfbreed and Joy Kogawa's Obasan as testimonies of alternate Canadian histories, this project challenges normative ideas of Canadian identity and history that privilege the colonial, Eurocentric subject. Further, I consider how including memoir in the pedagogical space combats normalized racism and "othering" in Canada. I argue that calling Canadian students to bear witness to memories deemed "forgettable" in a national context opens the possibility of rethinking notions of "Canadian" history and identity.

▼ ‘The Great Forgetting’ is about the process of consolidation of French republicanism in the early, formative years of the French Third Republic and the regime’s accordant search for the republic’s legitimacy in the aftermath of l’année terrible - the year of 1871, during which France had to deal with the loss of the Franco-Prussian war, the fall of the Second Empire, the creation of the Third Republic, the siege of Paris by the Prussians, the defeat and humiliating peace terms, the Paris Commune, and new ideas about the nation. This process can otherwise be described as the creation of a
history and accordant commemorative tradition of a Republic by its government that had to account for its legitimacy in the aftermath of a violent past. The whole will be analysed by considering the Père-Lachaise cemetery in Paris as a locus for national symbolism of the French Third Republic. This thesis argues that the cemetery can be considered as a stage for performing politics used by the governments of the Third Republic and its abovementioned opponents as a place to create their definition of France from 26 March 1871 onward. While describing this mnemonic battle on Père-Lachaise about the place of l’année terrible in the
history of the Third Republic, this thesis analyses why it was that a ‘Communard memory’ of this period prevailed over any other constructed collective
memory in relation to issues of legitimacy of and in the early Third Republic.

▼ This is a thesis that relies upon oral history to investigate the experiences of Australian soldiers serving in Vietnam in 1967. The thesis is unusual because the historian is the former platoon commander of these soldiers who recorded the narrations of former platoon members. The first half of the thesis examines the strengths and weaknesses of oral history and why the Vietnam War has produced so many controversial 'narrations' from veterans of the war. The second half of the thesis examines a controversy that affected this platoon and involved the killing of civilians in an ambush on 23 October 1967. The ambush became a major controversy in the Australian press in 1976. The conclusion reached is that oral history, especially the narrations of ordinary soldiers, is vital for an improved understanding of the Vietnam War but these narrations must be used carefully and corroborated as much as possible with written sources. In the case of the ambush that is at the centre of this thesis, it is only through the narrations of the soldiers that it is possible to understand an event that became embroiled in political controversy and patriotic propaganda.

▼ This thesis investigates urban development and locational memory in New York and Los Angeles during the mid to late twentieth century, as represented both materially in the landscape of the city and textually in fiction and memoir. I begin my study in Raymond Chandler’s Los Angeles, where paved gardens and concretised river beds lie beneath the gridded urban landscape which hides the past and dislocates memory from what is visible in urban space. Next, through my analysis of Marshall Berman’s reflections on his childhood in the Bronx, I paint a picture of New York during the 1950s, during which the proposals of urban planner and master builder Robert Moses were put to work, dismantling many of the city’s pre-existing urban structures and its institutional memory. Subsequently I move to Los Angeles in the late 1960s, analysing two works of fiction by Joan Didion and Alison Lurie. In this chapter I explore California’s spatial and temporal indeterminacy. From imagined to remembered space, I next examine Didion’s family memoirs and personal essays in addition to D. J. Waldie’s reminiscences. I find that despite attempts to cultivate one’s personal history in textual form, a sense of loss is what is long remembered and hard to control. My thesis comes to a close with L. J. Davis and Paula Fox in the early 1970s when there was a new form of change afoot in the built environment in the form of gentrification. In the fragmented, automobile-dominated Los Angeles; in the dislocated Bronx; in California where the past seems to melt into air; and in brownstone Brooklyn, I show that the experience of what Sigmund Freud deems “the uncanny” is rife, appearing in the cracks between the absent and the present, the invisible and the visible, memory and history. The fissures and gaps in the narratives of each author reflect the various processes and consequences of the imposition of twentieth-century modernism in particular urban spaces during this period.

▼ Justice, retribution, service - these were a few of the central values that historical organization members in York, United Kingdom and the "Gold Country" region of the American West (central to the late nineteenth-century Gold Rush) invoked in seeking and disseminating what they deemed to be the “truth” about local
history. These locations both feature an unusually high density of historical organizations - including historical societies, museums, and an American Indian colony's Cultural Resources Program - being rich with historical sites, monuments, and tales of local
history. However, they are also linked by the rise of "nationalist populist" movements in both locations, such as groups of Trump supporters in the U.S. and "Brexiteers" in the U.K. In my dissertation, "'
History is Who We Are': Truth, Community, and Crafting the Past in York, United Kingdom and Northern California and Nevada," I investigate the ways in which the neoliberal political climate spurred historical organization members to forge meaningful social bonds with one another in their pursuit of truth and disparagement of popular “false” narratives of
history. I utilize a comparative analysis of historical organizations in the two locations to answer a series of questions: How does a finely-honed understanding of local
history color the moral, social, and political worlds of organization members? How do these organizations assimilate and mobilize different forms of knowledge? And how do members' perceptions of truth mediate their moral positions on
history and their social bonds? Through two years of ethnographic research I traced historical organization members' worlds, from their fierce disputes over human remains to their engagement with myth to their support for or objection to current political trends - such as Native American efforts to influence legislation in the U.S. and Brexit in the U.K. Through examining my interlocutors' use of historical evidence, along with their forging, reevaluation, and transmission of historical narratives, I probe their rationales for engaging with
history. I ultimately trace this reasoning to their shared, deep-seated moralizing contentions about
history and community, their sense of holding a public trust, and their need to achieve vindication for ancestors and historic figures.

▼ peer-reviewed
This thesis discusses the relationship between memory and history in contemporary Cuba, within the framework of cultural studies, as represented in three books by Amir Valle: Habana Babilonia, Santuario de sombras and Las palabras y los muertos. In the aftermath of the Cuban revolution, history and memory became instruments in the construction of a collective revolutionary identity that took a definite downturn during the 90s. The present study aims to illustrate, how Valle’s fiction and nonfiction narratives problematize these changes, and project the embodiment of memory in Cuba. Drawing on a variety of theoretical frameworks that range from memory studies, history and hermeneutics to deconstructionism, I analyse three core elements in these works: Valle’s portrayal of marginality as a way to challenge centre-periphery relationships, his use of testimony in rescuing alternative histories and the deconstruction of the official discourse that is present in his literature. This textual and extra-textual analysis reveals the process of counter memory, as well as the transformation of the social frameworks of memory and the shifting of landmarks through which Cuban society remembers. This unveils supressed polyphonic identities and leads to the emergence of a besieged memory, and new sites of memory which are evolving, distant from the official discourse, and in resonance with the nation’s cultural diversity.
This thesis proves the problematic relationship between memory and history, and how it’s dynamic has become altered on the island. I hope this research will contribute to enrich the interdisciplinary approach in recent Cuban history and offer new insights within the field of Cultural Studies.

▼ Time, by definition, is an intangible phenomenon. Everyone knows it exists and can tell the passage of time based on the track of the sun and the hands on a clock, but time itself is an invisible entity. This architectural thesis maintains that time can be made tangible through the relationships formed between people and their personal histories and memories. The predominant way the present knows anything about its past is through someoneâ s telling of it. A person who experienced the past shares with the present and in doing so, gives the past and time itself presence. This
Memory Center, located in Dupont Circle, Washington, D.C., gives the opportunity for people to share their memories and experiences in order to give time physical presence. Like an interactive science museum, the
Memory Center opens itself to the people who visit it and allows for interactions that create lasting memories. Although one cannot consciously control most of what becomes
memory, events that are new or unusual or involve interacting with new people usually form stronger and more lasting memories.

▼ This thesis analyses British Holocaust memorialization from the 1980s to today, through case studies on the Hyde Park Holocaust Memorial, the Holocaust Exhibition at the Imperial War Museum and the Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre. This thesis shows how the concept of the Holocaust evolved from being relatively ignored, to being a key
subject in twentieth century British
history. The first hypothesis underlying this research is that whereas earlier attempts at British Holocaust memorialization predominantly focused on the historical uniqueness of the genocide, later initiatives place greater emphasis on its universal significance. This hypothesis is confirmed by the three case studies. After the end of the Cold War the universal lessons of the Holocaust are increasingly addressed, visible in the Holocaust exhibition in the IWM and the Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre. Nevertheless, the uniqueness of the Holocaust remains important in all three of the case studies. The second hypothesis reads that whereas earlier attempts at British Holocaust memorialization tend to lack critical self-reflection, later initiatives show more willingness to explore Britain’s sense of guilt. The two latest initiatives, both created after 1989, do address the more negative aspects of Britain’s role in the war. Yet, the hypothesis cannot be confirmed for a greater willingness to explore these controversial issues does not seem to be present. Rather, the third initiative seems to prioritize the traditional heroic story of Britain’s relation to the Holocaust. Scholarship on Holocaust
memory in Britain has evolved into a field in its own right, with key contributions of Tony Kushner, Andy Pearce, Dan Stone and David Cesarani. The field is intrinsically interdisciplinary, therefore this thesis necessarily draws upon literature from the fields of British
History, Cultural Studies and
Memory Studies. It builds upon primary material kept by the Imperial War Museum Archive and the London Metropolitan Archive, as well as materials found online and in the libraries of the University of Leiden and the University of Oxford.

▼ Esta tesis analiza las representaciones de la Segunda República, la Guerra Civil y la posguerra en un corpus de novelas, escritas entre 1990 y 2010, relacionadas con el “fenómeno de la memoria”. En este trabajo se entiende por “fenómeno de la memoria” o “cultura de la memoria” la forma predominante como las sociedades occidentales se han relacionado con el pasado durante las últimas décadas. Este fenómeno internacional comporta una intensa preocupación por la memoria, el pasado y los testigos de acontecimientos traumáticos. Dicho proceso posee unas características propias en España, y se ha manifestado de forma preeminente en la literatura, que constituye por ello un espacio privilegiado para su estudio.
Los objetivos de esta investigación son estudiar cómo conciben el pasado reciente y traumático (incluida la Transición democrática española) una serie de novelistas que pertenecen al campo heterogéneo de la izquierda intelectual, y que participan con sus obras de la llamada “cultura de la memoria”. En este trabajo se analizan diferentes obras de Juan Marsé, Rafael Chirbes, Almudena Grandes, Antonio Muñoz Molina y Javier Cercas. Esta tesis estudia los diferentes discursos sobre el pasado español así como las ideas de historia, testigo, memoria, verdad y nación que estos autores desarrollan en sus novelas. Se analizan de esta manera los debates y las luchas por el significado en las que participan estos autores a través de sus novelas y su actividad pública, en aras de explicar cómo comprenden el pasado, el presente y el futuro de la nación y la democracia española actual. En el ámbito literario tiene lugar una querella en torno a la forma de concebir el pasado reciente, que pone de manifiesto la lucha entre formas distintas de interpretar el proceso de transición de la dictadura a la democracia. Este trabajo estudia la relación que se establece en las novelas entre los discursos políticos e ideológicos, las ideas morales y las concepciones estéticas de cada uno de estos autores, así como la relación entre determinadas interpretaciones de la Segunda República y la Guerra Civil española y ciertas visiones de la transición de la dictadura a la democracia. Asimismo, pese a que no constituyen un elemento prioritario del análisis, se presta atención a los recursos narrativos que, en su voluntad de narrar el pasado, utilizan cada uno de los autores.
Esta tesis se enmarca dentro de la perspectiva de análisis de la Historia Cultural, pero tiene una voluntad interdisciplinar. La metodología utilizada es el análisis discursivo y contextual, en el que se ponen en relación las novelas con otros discursos no literarios, así como con sus contextos. En la medida en que las novelas responden a un fenómeno muy complejo, se presta atención a los enfoques de otras disciplinas. De esta forma, a la perspectiva de la nueva Historia Cultural, se suman algunas aportaciones de otras áreas como son los Estudios Culturales, la Teoría de la Historia, la Historia y la Teoría de la Literatura, los Estudios sobre el Nacionalismo y sobre los…

▼ This study seeks to shed new light on the complex web of relations among history, historiography and contemporary life. It does so by focusing on Israeli commissions of inquiry that have taken rise in the wake of major national traumas such as failed battles in the 1948 War, the Yom Kippur War, and the assassination of the Zionist leader Chaim Arlosoroff. Each one of these landmark events in the history of Israel was investigated by a state or a military commission of inquiry, whose members and audience operate as authors of history and agents of memory. The study suggests that commissions of inquiry, which have been studied to date primarily as legal, administrative, and political bodies, in fact also operate as a public historian of a unique kind. In this capacity, and unlike a professional historian, commissions are by definition expected not to refrain from making ethical and legal judgments. On the contrary, judgment is, in the final analysis, the underpinning motivation for their historical inquiry. Moreover, commissions of inquiry, and the way their work reverberates within the public sphere, and in professional and popular historiography, allow us to focus on processes of collective-memory formation. While commissions have the ability to shape conventional views regarding matters of vital public importance, this ability is dependent on a wide range of factors, circumstances and their particular admixture in the decades that follow the completion of the commission's work. The case studies analyzed in the dissertation reveal the way in which Israeli society has struggled to forge memories of – and historical judgments about – difficult chapters in the country's history. In the course of analysis, the dissertation also examines questions such as who is understood to have the right to make historical judgments on matters deemed to be of vital public importance? In what ways have commissions of inquiry contributed to the shaping and revision of Israeli history and memory? What factors and circumstances have enabled or prevented them from doing so? What light do they shed on social conceptions of the difference between historical truth, political truth and legal truth, and how do such distinctions influence the work and deliberations of commission members themselves? Through such questions, and by applying a comparative analysis, the study seeks to open a vista into the ways in which a national society such as Israel, processes and negotiates its past and its memory of it.

▼ History
This dissertation explores the development of an American D-Day tale. D-Day, the Allied invasion of northwestern France in June 1944, stood out to Americans because it seemed to promise a quick end to the Second World War in Europe. This lasting conception of the amphibious assault as a critical juncture has placed it in the forefront of American memories of the war's European phase. More than a turning point, however, American conceptions of the event have come to constitute a veritable morality tale. According to its narrative, D-Day demonstrated the military competence of a free republic that put its faith in citizen-soldiers. This tale has romanticized warfare by depicting it as an event populated by democratic heroes engaging clearly evil foes in decisive clashes fought for liberty, national redemption, and world salvation. The redemptive power of violence displayed on Norman beaches enjoyed divine blessing, and even, as sometimes claimed, outright assistance. Veterans and their family members, politicians, military leaders, honorific organizations, news media personalities, filmmakers, scholars and authors all have offered entries into a staggering field of American D-Day-related material. Their messages, largely similar in tone, transmitted to American audiences through museums, monuments, news stories, books, speeches, games, documentary films and Hollywood spectaculars. This dissertation will also evaluate the impact of their memory work on America. D-Day allegedly reaffirmed cherished American notions of democracy, fair play, moral order, and the militant (yet non-militaristic) use of power for divinely sanctioned and altruistic purposes. Such interpretations of clashing arms have exerted a powerful influence on American conceptions of patriotism, civic duty, and the efficacious use of military power. Feeding the militarization of American culture in the Cold War and beyond, the D-Day tale has pushed Americans to see war as a bloody yet noble clash, a veritable crusade used by the righteous for just purpose and decisive results. This story has cemented into place popular conceptions of the battle and an ideal-type of expectations for "good" wars.

▼ In 1927, Austrian intellectual Robert Musil dismissively argued: “The remarkable thing about monuments is that one does not notice them. There is nothing in the world so invisible as a monument.” But modern controversies over monuments remind us that these works, intended as permanent interpretations of the past, are anything but invisible. This dissertation examines this central subject in Argentina’s capital city of Buenos Aires, as well as the issue of national identity—a subject that has a complex and frustrated history in Argentina. By analyzing the history, iconography, and controversies behind several central monuments in Buenos Aires, I argue that competing constructions of Argentine identity and historical memory have been continually embedded and contested in the urban landscape, in ways that remain influential in the present. I frame these discussions around four monuments in the city’s commemorative core: the Pirámide de Mayo, inaugurated in 1811 in honor of Argentina’s independence; a monumental statue of Christopher Columbus, gifted by Buenos Aires’s Italian immigrant community for the 1910 centennial; and an equestrian statue of former president Julio A. Roca, inaugurated in 1941. I add to these central cases a brief examination of a monument to mestiza independence fighter Juana Azurduy (1780-1862), which replaced the aforementioned Columbus statue in 2015. These monuments provide the main characters for this dissertation, which follows the life of these works from initial planning to political and public use and appropriation in the years after their inauguration, all the way to debates that have erupted over them in the present. My analysis includes multiple factors, considering each monument’s political and social context, design, materials, location, iconography or inscriptions, and intellectual debates on identity that ran concurrent with its creation. By examining all of these elements, as well as the ways in which each monument’s appearance, location, and/or meanings have changed over time, I argue that each of these monuments reflects Argentina’s frustrated quest for national definition and a contested, still unresolved past. Reaching from Argentina’s independence in 1810 to modern struggles in the post-dictatorship era, the interconnecting histories of these central monuments demonstrate how each was used to shape identity in times of intense political and social instability. Moreover, these cases also reveal how this was achieved not just through the monuments themselves, but also through public ceremony and rituals around them. Lastly, my arguments illustrate how the symbolic messages behind these central monuments have been appropriated and expanded over time, through the actions of both political officials and popular actors.

▼ This dissertation examines public memories of civil rights injustice and resistance as constitutive rhetorics of urban culture and spatiality for the city of Detroit. By studying the city of Detroit as it navigates an ongoing period of dramatic change and redevelopment, this study demonstrates how material manifestations of
memory become the constitutive forces that define what many describe as “Detroit’s heart and soul.” This project illustrates the embedded cultural logics produced from sites of public
memory, thereby arguing city spaces as locations bound to their legacies and beholden to material and symbolic consequences of their past. This dissertation proceeds through four analytical focuses on
memory sites in Detroit, demonstrating the mnemonic features of haunting
memory, emergent
memory, forgetting, and disruptive
memory that mold the city space as a whole. While previous scholarship on the relationship between
memory, rhetoric, and cities introduces the network of mnemonic narratives that produce our singular ideological frameworks, they fail to extend such conclusions to complicated cultural amalgamations, such as city spaces and the cultures that define them. This dissertation closes with a look to Detroit’s future and an extended conclusion detailing the cautions that Detroit’s public memories of the civil rights struggle suggest, particularly in the context of ongoing controversies in contemporary Detroit. From the cases explored across this project, the author argues Detroit and city spaces like it are a social, assemblage of cultural palimpsests, spaces bound to public memories that continue to shape, inform, and influence the manner in which these locations move forward.

▼ Abstract
The ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict has sparked a debate in Canada (and elsewhere) that is as intractable as the conflict itself. This study looks at two Diasporas, Palestinian and Jewish, in the Toronto area, as typical of the challenges within these communities worldwide when it comes to deeply understanding the Other. Collective
memory, a representation of the past shared by a group, is viewed in this study as a prime factor in how conflicts become intractable, insulating the groups from deeply acknowledging the Other and the Other’s
history. I look at three primary catalysts that concretize
memory within groups: identity, trauma and victim beliefs. This study engages in the experiences and memories of these experiences in the eight participants who I have interviewed for this study. The participants engaged in two interviews, a narrative interview where they shared their stories with me and an interaction interview where they responded to the stories of the Other. This research is not a peace plan or even a path towards peace, but is a process of unraveling. As the researcher I unravel my own victimhood as a Jew from a family of the Shoah. I am also unraveling two seemingly disparate realities, the ways in which collective
memory has become ensconced within the two groups and the reality that the two groups’ situations today are starkly different. While both groups have experienced very traumatic histories, the trauma of Occupation is ongoing for Palestinians. This research offers an alternative to typical “dialogue”, acknowledging the importance of hearing the Other’s stories within a framework of social justice and human rights. While recognizing the importance of sharing in the experiences of the Other, the Jewish community has a greater responsibility to alter the situation on the ground for those living in the Occupied territories.

▼ The Displacement of Ghosts is a practice-led research project interpreting stories of people and places through vernacular and archival documentation. It seeks to translate histories, which expand and evolve through the processes of
memory and recall, into visual narrative representations as retold, reinterpreted and/or imagined by the artist as historian, archivist and/or archaeologist — exploring the concept of an open and non-linear
history which remains unlocked, allowing for the feasibility of editing and reinterpretation. The notion of a non-linear narrative was explored by Walter Benjamin in his 1940 essay, ‘Theses in the Philosophy of History’ also referred to as ‘On the Concept of History’. These non-linear narratives alongside the dialectical images found within the text, play pivotal roles in the research and practice of this project, alongside that of
memory studies and archival investigation. The research connects Pierre Nora’s writing on ‘Les Lieux de Memoire’ (Realms of
Memory) and Marianne Hirsch’s theory of postmemory, to Jacques Derrida’s concept of hauntology – creating a triptych of ideas that when put together may aid in the understanding of the challenges of identity felt by those who have been physically removed, by choice or force, from their place of origin, and their attempts to recuperate what has been lost or displaced. Migrants, it can be suggested, are always already connected to numerous places at once, but not entirely present in any. The ghosts from the past become tangled in a nostalgic present, disrupting our idea of
history as a linear progression. The irreducibility of hauntology as a concept makes it difficult for it to exist outside the idea of it being other than an entrapment in an amalgamation of temporalities — the beginning is the coming back, and consequently, one is in a continuous cycle of an amnesic return.

▼ A HistÃria da Enfermagem, em seus distintos contextos, traz a elucidaÃÃo e interpretaÃÃo de fatos e acontecimentos oportunizando o entendimento de lacunas existentes na sua evoluÃÃo, evidenciadas ao longo do tempo, dando condiÃÃes para reflexÃo e anÃlise perpassando nas mudanÃas ocorridas. Este estudo, de cunho histÃrico-social, teve como propositura reconstituir a HistÃria da Enfermagem do Hospital Walter CantÃdio da Universidade Federal do CearÃ, agregando fragmentos de sua trajetÃria na instituiÃÃo, desde sua inserÃÃo ocorrida em 1952 atà 2012. A HistÃria Oral foi utilizada como mÃtodo de pesquisa, e a entrevista, instrumento para coleta de dados. Como fontes primÃrias foram utilizadas a documentaÃÃo oral, obtida mediante as entrevistas, e documentos escritos, como legislaÃÃes, projetos, atas e regimentos. Como fontes secundÃrias, livros, artigos cientÃficos, dissertaÃÃes, teses e pesquisas, entre outros materiais que deram subsÃdios para contemplar o objetivo proposto. O trabalho se debruÃa nas memÃrias de enfermeiras que participaram desse processo, no decorrer do referido perÃodo, amparado por documentos escritos, iconogrÃficos, que registraram os fatos histÃricos, e evoca, nÃo somente elementos historicamente construÃdos pelo grupo em questÃo, mas destaca a Enfermagem, pelas dimensÃes do saber-conhecer o passado da profissÃo. Os resultados mostram que as profissionais de enfermagem pioneiras do Hospital Walter CantÃdio delinearam, com galhardia, o desafio das diretrizes do ensino, da pesquisa e assistÃncia, nesta instituiÃÃo, visando o compromisso profissional. Notabilizamos grandes nomes que abrilhantaram a evoluÃÃo do ServiÃo de Enfermagem desta renomada instituiÃÃo, sempre na perspectiva de diferenciaÃÃo profissional, atravÃs de estratÃgias para qualificar o cuidado Ãtico. Ao referirmos sobre suas aÃÃes, assinalamos o processo da SistematizaÃÃo da AssistÃncia, que impulsionou e subsidiou o desempenho do trabalho do grupo, que desenvolve um cuidado integral e individual, fundamentado em evidÃncias cientÃficas e no trabalho interdisciplinar. A enfermeira assume o papel de gestora, vislumbrando direcionar as aÃÃes do cuidar. Em sua funÃÃo assistencial, està envolvida no cuidado ao paciente, e à direcionada para o ensino em prol da formaÃÃo de outros profissionais da Ãrea, assumindo inÃmeros papÃis no contexto da organizaÃÃo desse cuidado, distanciando-se gradativamente das aÃÃes diretas ao paciente. Engaja-se na pesquisa fomentando a investigaÃÃo e estudos que possam ter influÃncia positiva em sua prÃtica assistencial. O desenvolvimento tÃcnico-cientÃfico, como uma das suas principais diretrizes, propiciou a capacitaÃÃo profissional e a humanizaÃÃo do atendimento, fornecendo subsÃdios à implantaÃÃo do modelo assistencial institucional e o atendimento ao paciente. Hoje, a Enfermagem contempla e celebra sua trajetÃria exitosa, nos mostrando suas liÃÃes, e, ao mesmo tempo nos guiando a fim de traÃarmos novos rumos. Esse grupo sedimenta e amplia conhecimentos, consolidando a prÃtica de assistir, oportunizando o…

▼ The 1994 genocide in Rwanda claimed close to a million lives leaving behind thousands oforphans, widows and a traumatized population. Families that once lived, worked, and prayedtogether turned against each, using machettes, hoes, and sometimes guns. Places of worshipeasily turned into slaughter houses and up to date, some churches and different places of worshipare genocide museums. Tutsi families were particularly targeted although Hutu-Tutsisympathizers were also killed. Rwanda’s challenge today is rebuilding the nation and reunitingpeople once again. The government of Rwanda has focused on allowing Rwandese to tell theirstories of survival and of betrayal. Through testimony sharing, both perpetrators and victimshave re-united and have become neighbors again. This thesis therefore will attempt to discuss therole of memory in uniting the once divided Rwandese.

▼ This study examines the three generations of Civil War reenactors: the veterans, the centennial reenactors, and the modern community. It argues that they are an excellent case study for examining the evolving memory of the Civil War, particularly when considered in the context of five interpretative traditions: the “Lost Cause,” the “Union Cause,” the “Reconciliationist Cause,” the “Emancipationist Cause,” and the “White Supremacist Cause.” At the same time, a careful analysis of the modern community illustrates the myriad ways in which contemporary individuals interact with and utilize the past.

▼ A dissertação é dedicada a analisar a relação entre História e memória na obra do cineasta francês Chris Marker, focando nos filmes La jetée e Sans Soleil. No trabalho, investigamos a concepção estética dos filmes em contato com aspectos de época que os constituem. A dissertação está dividida em três partes. A primeira dedicada a analisar La jetée e o trabalho de representação da memória feito pelo diretor em uma era de catástrofe. A segunda parte é dedicada a analisar Sans Soleil, seu caráter reflexivo e o modo como o diretor trata da temática da memória, da relação com as imagens do passado e as experiências de luta da segunda metade do século XX. A terceira parte é um estudo comparativo das duas obras e das questões que permanecem e mudam na representação da memória nos dois filmes.
The research is dedicated to analyze the relation between History, memory in the cinema of the french director Chris Marker, specially the films La jetée and Sans Soleil. We investigated the aesthetics conception of films and historical aspects that influenced them. The work is divided into three parts. The first one investigates La jetée and the construction of memory representation made by the director in an era of catastrophe. The second part is dedicated to analyze Sans Soleil, its reflective nature and the way the director treats the theme of memory, the relation with images of the past and the social mobilizations experiences of the second half of the twentieth century. The third part is a comparative study of the two films and the issues that remain and change in the representation of memory.

▼ Este trabalho tece uma comparação entre as obras de João Guimarães Rosa e Mia Couto, contemplando as semelhanças e diferenças entre seus projetos estéticos, tendo como fio condutor a tradição oral. Segundo Walter Benjamin, todos os grandes escritores hauriram da tradição oral e, Ángel Rama parece corroborar com isso, quando diz que os escritores da modernidade recorrem a essa vertente para tecerem as suas narrativas. Rosa e Mia se voltam para o passado e seus olhares se cruzam ao recriarem as lendas, mitos, ritos, provérbios e chistes na elaboração de seus textos. É certo que, a tradição oral em suas narrativas não representa os costumes de seus povos na íntegra, uma vez que, na obra de Guimarães Rosa é retratada como algo evanescente e, mesmo na de Mia Couto, que faz parte do cotidiano, ela já aparece fragmentada. Porém, a preocupação maior é com o processo de recriação, pois este acaba nos remetendo à história de seus países, uma vez que as perspectivas dos autores parecem convergir no mesmo ponto: a \"modernizaçãoïmplantada de maneira brusca naquelas sociedades, relegando a uma \"terceira margem\", grande parte de suas populações. Brasil e Moçambique são países que têm em comum a língua portuguesa, herdada do colonizador que foi o mesmo. No entanto, são portadores de culturas distintas, pois, apesar da semelhança entre os elementos que as compõem, os valores são diferentes. As narrativas de João Guimarães Rosa e de Mia Couto não representam a História, mas contam história. Dessa forma, narração, memória e História se entrecruzam de tal maneira, que as fronteiras entre ficção e realidade se tornam muito tênues.
This work makes a comparison among the workmanships of João Guimarães Rosa and Mia Couto, contemplating the similarities and differences between its aesthetic projects, having as conducting wire the verbal tradition. According to Walter Benjamin, all the great writers exhausted the verbal tradition and, Ángel Rama seems to corroborate with this, when he says that the writers of modernity appeal to this source to make their narratives. Rosa and Mia come back toward the past and their look cross when they recreate legends, myths, rites, beliefs, sayings and jests in the elaboration of their texts. It is certain that, the verbal tradition in his narratives does not represent the customs of the people as a whole, therefore, in the Guimarães Rosa\'s workmanship it is portrayed as something that is vanishing and, even in Mia Couto\'s, that is part of the daily one, it is already fragmented. However, the biggest concerning is with the recreation process, this sends us to the history of the countries, once these authorsṕerspectives seem to converge in the same point: the \"modernizationïmplanted in an abrupt way in those societies, relegating to one \"third edge\", great part of the population. Brazil and Mozambique are countries that have the Portuguese language in common, inherited from the settler, that was the same in both countries. However, they are carrying distinct cultures because , despite the…

▼ This thesis examines the ways in which the
Holocaust and the Jewish past have been remembered in Kraków,
investigates the impact local
memory work has had on Polish
collective
memory, and problematises the importance of the 1989
threshold for that
memory work. Looking at Kraków, an exceptional
and exceptionally important case study, between 1980 and 2013, the
thesis investigates heritage creations in Kazimierz, the old Jewish
Town, and traces the genealogies of Holocaust exhibitions presented
in Kraków. It also traces the emergence of urban critical
narratives about the past, pertaining both to the city and to
Poland as a whole. Created in opposition to the mainstream
ethno-nationalist narrative, which was often supported by both the
Communist and the democratic governments, the interpretation of the
past laid out in Kraków gradually incorporated the Jewish past into
the narrative on Polish
history. The thesis demonstrates how, over
the course of thirty years, Jews came to be presented as rightful
members of the Polish national community, and the Holocaust as an
integral part of Polish war
history, albeit still distinct to other
sufferings.At the forefront of the process of excavating and
presenting Kraków’s Jewish past were local
memory activists. In
particular, this thesis highlights the pivotal role played by
mid-ranking officials from municipal administration and by fictive
kinships in the process of urbanisation of
memory. These
individuals and groups translated the ideas of critical engagement
with the nation’s
history, propagated by some sections of the
national elite, into a form that could be consumed by a mass
audience. In addition, the thesis demonstrates that
memory work on
a local level persisted almost uninterrupted through the transition
to democracy. Activists responsible for the creation of inclusive
narratives in the 1980s, and the Krakowian intelligentsia in
general, carried those ideas forward through the collapse of
Communism – no radical reformulation of representations of the
Jewish past or the Holocaust took place in the early 1990s. The
local narratives grew progressively more critical and increasingly
more cosmopolitan from the 1980s onward, but this process only
truly accelerated after 2010. The present thesis argues that this
post-2010 intensification was only possible after local activists
had embraced new forms of commemoration and new modes of
authentication within museum exhibitions. In particular it points
toward the espousal of ‘complementary authenticities,’ a mode of
authentication of narratives strongly anchored in
history that at
the same time aimed to incite an emotional response. This
incorporation of ‘complementary authenticities’ allowed for the
creation of narratives that sensitised audiences to the suffering
of Poles regardless of their ethnic background. Thus the thesis
relates the developments of
memory work in Kraków to broader
changes in culture, rather than solely to changes in political
life.

Bringing the past into the present : cinematic representation of history in Turkey since the mid-1990s.

▼ Historicizing plays a crucial role in the building of nation-states, and during the nation-building process, dominant forms of history have promoted certain ethnicities and cultures over others insofar as the nation relied upon those 'official' histories which asserted the 'continuity' and 'progress' of a particular social group. However, through the agency of films in contemporary Turkey, contested versions of the past are coming to light and challenging the dominant discourses on history that have imagined the nation as a homogeneous entity and national history as a set of 'glorious' moments. As a result, the historical film form in Turkey has emerged as a site for the exploration of history, memory, trauma and historical representation in relation to the discourses that surround these fields. In this regard, this thesis examines cinematic representations of history in Turkey through an exploration of the similar and disparate ways that filmic representations since the mid-1990s have attempted to come to terms with the dark moments of the national past. By delving into the intimate and intricate relationship between history, memory, trauma and cinematic representation, this study proposes that the filmic representations of the past in Turkey that have been produced in the last two decades do not consolidate or challenge conventional ways of engaging with the past solely through their subject-matters and themes. In contrast, these films tend to either bolster or undermine traditional discourses on historical representation through the forms they deploy. By examining the cinematic treatment of both conventional stories and the traumatic moments of the national past, this thesis brings to the fore three divergent tendencies in representations of the past in contemporary cinema in Turkey and identifies a new historical film form which offers a critical route for engaging with questions about representations of the past in narratives, histories and films.

▼ The old axiom that history is doomed to repeat itself seems to be true in the contemporary world. Ideologies of hate and division are having something of a resurgence, despite our common cries of ‘never again.’ We can trace these divisive identities from our archaic sacrificial rituals, through the horror of colonialism, and into the genocides of the modern age; apparently violence is here to stay. While there is generosity, compassion, and empathy that surfaces alongside this destruction, it seems to be swept aside all too readily in favour of division, blame, and separation. It is in this context that I ask what role our presentations of societal violence play in the perpetual emergence of divisive ideologies.
Drawing on the work of Girard, Kristeva, Sen, and Arendt amongst others, I argue that our presentations of past atrocity should focus on the presence of violence within our familiar, normative realms. This unseen presence can be revealed through creative praxis, which frames our sense of orientation with the world. As forms of creative expression, art, architecture and literature can work to actively undermine the divisive cultural ideologies that justify atrocity by reframing how we relate to extreme societal violence. Through three case studies of memorial architecture I show how our creative expressions can both undermine and perpetuate the divisions inherent to the violence they discuss. My written and made analyses of these spaces explore how the stories and methods of storytelling contribute to the revelation of the uncanny presence of violence, altering our understanding of normalcy.
By presenting violence without the space for improvisation that fosters life’s capacity to grow, architects risk obscuring our ability to empathize, limiting our understanding of humanity. An embrace of uncertainty carries the potential for a future that affirms life, a future where divisive ideologies are acknowledged as illusory remnants of a more violent past, no longer dominant in our visions of the world we all share. It is my hope that through refocusing how we express mass violence, we can better guard against the incendiary ideologies that justify it. Within light there is darkness; in darkness, light.

▼ Commemorations are a critical window for exploring the social, political, and cultural trends of a specific time period. Over the past two centuries, the commemorative landscape of Ontario reaffirmed the inclusion/exclusion of particular racial groups. Intended as static markers to the past, monuments in particular visually demonstrated the boundaries of a community and acted as ongoing memorials to existing social structures. Using a specific type of iconography and visual language, the creators of monuments imbued the physical markers of stone and bronze with racialized meanings. As builders were connected with their own time periods and social contexts, the ideas behind these commemorations shifted. Nonetheless, creators were intent on producing a memorial that educated present and future generations on the boundaries of their “imagined communities.” This dissertation considers the carefully chosen iconographies of Ontario’s monuments and how visual symbolism was attached to historical memory. Through the examination of five case studies, this dissertation examines the shifting commemorative landscape of Ontario and how memorials were used to mark the boundaries of communities. By integrating the visual analysis of monuments and related images, it bridges a methodological and theoretical gap between history and art history. This dissertation opens an important dialogue between these fields of study and demonstrates how monuments themselves are critical “documents” of the past.

▼ Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
This thesis examines how the ideal of the Australian pioneer woman has been so broadly circulated in Australian national social memory. Through the study of the dissemination of the social memory in a range of diverse sources, I will scrutinise the tensions that have existed around this ideal; how these tensions have been reconciled into a dominant narrative; and how they have shifted through the time of the inception of the legend to the present day. In its approach to the creation of social memory, to understand the changing influences of this particular memory in the Australian psyche, this thesis draws upon a number of types of sources for history that have tended to be overlooked – such as headstones, popular and family histories, and museum exhibitions. Significantly, the thesis will examine the role that such non-traditional accounts of the past have played in the transmission of social memory. Most people do not gain their knowledge of the past through intensive and exhaustive research; instead, they appropriate, as their own, the messages and meanings that they are fed through a variety of modes. The relationship between sources and social memory is a symbiotic one, where the sources are informed by social memory, and then in turn shape and elaborate social memory. In so many cases, the very creation of sources happens within the parameters of the national social memory. These sources are then drawn upon by subsequent generations to form their own social memory of pioneer women. This thesis will demonstrate that social memory is not rigid, but instead is subjected to shifting energies and changing tensions; and explain, through a discussion of a diverse range of sources through which it is disseminated, how memory remains fluid so that it is able to respond to the needs of the community that it serves. Australia’s pioneer woman remains an important aspect of the national identity – her creation and, thus, significance situated firmly in the present.

▼ The following analysis argues that from 1914 to 1937 the experiences of Irish soldiers in the First World War was not a significant part of the post-independence narratives that Sinn Feiners attempted to establish. This failure to incorporate war
memory and commemoration in to the national story was largely based on the separation of British and Irish identities, republican anti-imperial rhetoric, violence towards commemoration, and ultimately a lack of support from either the Free State government or the majority of the Irish public. Members of both the Cumann na nGaedheal and Fianna Fáil governments increasingly separated Irish and British identities. This separation of identities was reinforced by members of the Irish Republican Army, and political republicans, amongst other members of the public. As the Irish people were forced to choose between an Irish or British identity, British symbols and events were increasingly portrayed as imperial and thus, non-Irish by republicans who wanted a purely Irish state devoid of all vestiges of the British Empire. Despite this, ex-servicemen and the bereaved were able to negotiate meaning for their experience, particularly during the Irish Civil War when anti-imperial rhetoric was redirected towards each side that conflict. This negotiation space continued in 1924 when some Irish sought to re-unify southern Ireland around commemorating the Great War. This ability to assert a positive place for the Great War and its ex-servicemen steadily dissipated by the mid-1930’s in the face of anti-imperial and anti-British republican rhetoric and violence towards would-be commemorators. Scholarly works on Irish commemoration of the Great War traditionally focus on large scale, public acts of remembrance like parades, monuments, and propaganda. This dissertation seeks to create a more nuanced understanding of Irish remembrance of the war by examining more than these public acts and explores the relationship of the three spheres of remembrance: official, popular, and personal.
