In their collective dimension, memories are fluid—their form and content not fixed, but constantly adjusted by locations, places, generations, cultures, traditions, politics, epistemic authorities, and historical predictabilities.The contributions in this volume do not address memory in its psychological dimension, but explore the mnemonic materializations in cultural and social settings. Thus, this volume explores memory as a temporal and spatial dimension of meaning-making through an interdisciplinary lens by bringing to the forefront theories and methodologies from memory studies, continental philosophy, hermeneutics, anthropology, political philosophy, digital humanities, and cultural anthropology. Memory theorists posit that we aim “to understand, not just how the past is remembered, but also how its meaning is changed, over-written and challenged.” (Rigney, 2018: 254) This aim is also pursued by philosophers of history and politics among other social scientists.
