Communicating Memory and History

Edición de la obra Communicating Memory and History

Communicating Memory & History takes as its mission the job of giving communication history its full due in the study of memory. Taking three keywords-communication, history, and memory-representing related, albeit at times hostile, fields of inquiry as its point of departure, this book asks how the interdisciplinary field of memory studies can be productively expanded through the work of communication historians. Across the chapters of this book, contributors employ methods ranging from textual analysis to reception studies to prompt larger questions about how the past can be alternately understood, contested, and circulated.0.
