Memory Studies in the Digital Age: An Interdisciplinary Perspective

Editat de D Sudha Rani, Rachel Irdaya Raj
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 feb 2025
This interdisciplinary volume attempts to gauge the individual and social issues related to memory, with an understanding of Memory studies as an independent body of scholarship. It draws on multiple fields of knowledge, like popular culture, history, literature, oral cultures, and storytelling, which facilitates a panoramic view of memory studies.  
This book investigates the intersection between memory studies, partition, oral literature and digital technology.  It is also informed by the consciousness of memory in the digital age, which plays an integral role in what is remembered/forgotten, the form in which they are stored, and how they might be retrieved in future.
This book will be an invaluable resource for those involved in research from under graduation to post-doctoral level. This includes sociologists, psychologists, historians, artists, academicians as well as research scholars from other disciplines.

Recenzii

Memory Studies in Digital Age offers a fascinating panoply of memory studies in the present age. With its essays on digital technologies, storytelling, and identity it showcases the interdisciplinary scope of the field. The book’s focus on the Indian subcontinent provides rich new insights into hitherto under-researched constellations of memory.
