Remembering Places

A Phenomenological Study of the Relationship between Memory and Place

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This study provides insight into the human desire to return to important places of our past and to establish places of memory. Drawing upon philosophers such as Husserl, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, Gadamer, and Ricoeur, Janet Donohoe uses the idea of a palimpsest as a jumping-off point to explore how we make and preserve memories.
