How is the memory of traumatic events, such as genocide and
torture, inscribed within human bodies? In this book, Paul
Connerton discusses social and cultural memory by looking at the
role of mourning in the production of histories and the reticence
of silence across many different cultures. In particular he looks
at how memory is conveyed in gesture, bodily posture, speech and
the senses – and how bodily memory, in turn, becomes manifested in
cultural objects such as tattoos, letters, buildings and public
spaces. It is argued that memory is more cultural and collective
than it is individual. This book will appeal to researchers and
students in anthropology, linguistic anthropology, sociology,
social psychology and philosophy.
