This guide provides students and researchers with a clear set of outlines and discussions of particular methods of research in memory studies.

Key Features:
Investigating community remembering and memory in personal narrativesExploring the localisation of official national memory, and the contribution of different memoryscapes and different regimes of memory to cultural heritageAttending to painful pasts and disrupted memory Examining how memory is achieved and communicated in everyday interaction, and how it is manifested in emergent ethnicitiesFocusing on the production of social memory in the media and the use of media as self-produced vehicles of memoryAnalysing the dynamics of remembering in public confessions and apologias, and in testimonies offered by Holocaust survivors
