Beschreibung
The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Memory Studies will be the first major reference work in the rapidly developing field of Memory Studies. It will have an ambitious scope and will cover most of the approaches, theories and methods in memory studies. As a “living” online resource, it will promptly respond to shifts and developments in the field and thus be the prime tool to not only fill an important gap in the literature, but present a tool to continually detect and address emerging gaps. It aims at comprehensively presenting relevant concepts, themes and fields, and identifying and creating bridges among them - for example, there are several definitions of the concept of “collective memory” in memory studies depending on the disciplinary field (e.g., psychology and sociology). The encyclopedia entry “collective memory” will make this clear, include the definitions from the relevant fields and propose links among them. It will be a landmark work, concentrating the main approaches and concepts in memory studies across the social sciences, the cognitive sciences and the humanities.
The only updatable major academic work in memory studies Theme-oriented rather than disciplinary oriented Covers the social and cognitive sciences, and the humanities
