Paul Connerton: How Societies Remember

How Societies Remember


Description

In treating memory as a cultural rather than an individual faculty, this book provides an account of how bodily practices are transmitted in, and as, traditions. Most studies of memory as a cultural faculty focus on written, or inscribed transmissions of memories. Paul Connerton, on the other hand, concentrates on bodily (or incorporated) practices, and so questions the currently dominant idea that literary texts may be taken as a metaphor for social practices generally. The author argues that images of the past and recollected knowledge of the past are conveyed and sustained by ritual performances and that performative memory is bodily. Bodily social memory is an essential aspect of social memory, but it is an aspect which has until now been badly neglected. An innovative study, this work should be of interest to researchers into social, political and anthropological thought as well as to graduate and undergraduate students.

Accessible, clear and exam-focused, this student book engages all your students with interesting, up-to-date examples and relevant case studies. Clearly-written objectives open each section, setting out for students what they need to learn, and high-quality photos, maps and diagrams aid explanations. Motivating activities, chapters on fieldwork and issue evaluation, and exam-style questions with examiner's hints all reinforce the book's exam-driven rigour. The book also features a glossary for each chapter, and a full index.
