Product Description

This book focuses on Reconstructing Historical Memories of critical historical occurrences that have had a dramatic impact upon the development of human history. While the essays in this book analyze a range of circumstances that foreground issue of memory, history and narrative, this book offers primary approaches to understanding the reconstruction of historical memories. Moving across geographical borders and political boundaries, this book seeks to link the past with the present as this linkage is essential for a good understanding of the condition of being human. It also highlights that reconstructing historical memory, which redefines the past and national identity, significantly effects the interpretation of the present and the perspective about future. This book increases public consciousness in changing the narratives around what reconstruction of historical memories means and what we can learn from it. There is much in the book that has never been explored in book of links. As such this book offers a wide range of arguments and approaches and provide a powerful case for the importance of reconstruction of historical memories. It is a thought-provoking book that should be read by scholar and the public who are interested in understanding the politics of reconstructing historical memories.
