The next issue of the Richie Europa Newsletter (winter 2010) will focus on the theme of "European Memories and the construction of a collective European Memory" (http://www.europe-richie.org/REN/index-en.html). As an opening article, Cristina Blanco Sío-López, from the Centre Virtuel de la Connaissance sur l'Europe (CVCE, Luxembourg) will offer a methodological and bibliographical introduction to this polyedric topic.
Following this introductory article, we expect to offer a survey of the current research developments on this field and thus we encourage PhD and post-doctoral researchers to send an abstract of their ongoing or concluded project so that it can be included and reviewed in the newsletter. We are particularly interested in offering an overview of PhD projects either in progress or recently completed which take the issue of historical memory as their main viewpoint.
Possible topics may include, but are not restricted to:
- Memory and Identity in Europe
- The construction of a common European memory based on constantly
interacting histories
- Historical memory, education curricula and the making of a common
European History
- Memory and exile in Europe
- Instrumental memories and denials of historical memory
- Turning points, reinvented memories and self-appointed new eras
- Intertwined European and national legacies
- Memory, globalisation and localisation from a European perspective
We welcome abstracts of 2000 characters (1 page) maximum from
postgraduate researchers at all stages of their career, including
current PhD researchers.
Abstracts should be sent to Cristina Blanco Sío-López at:
