Wounds of Memory(ISBN=9780521873338) txt umd azw3 下载 fb2 pdf 在线 免费

　　German memories of the Second World War are controversial, and

they are used to justify different positions on the use of military

force. In this book, Maja Zehfuss studies the articulation of

memories in novels in order to discuss and challenge arguments

deployed in political and public debate. She explores memories that

have generated considerable controversy, such as the flight and

expulsion of Germans from the East, the bombing of German cities

and the 'liberation' of Germany in 1945. She shows how memory

retrospectively produces a past while claiming merely to invoke it,

drawing attention to the complexities and contradictions within how

truth, ethics, emotion, subjectivity and time are conceptualised.

Zehfuss argues that the tensions and uncertainties revealed raise

political questions that must be confronted, beyond the safety net

of knowledge. This is a compelling book which pursues an original

approach in exploring the politics of invocations of memory.
