  • Newsreels Versus Newspapers Versus Metadata
    volume 7 issue 14/2018 NEWSREELS VERSUS NEWSPAPERS VERSUS METADATA A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF METADATA MODELLING THE 1930S IN ESTONIA Indrek Ibrus Tallinn University Narva road 27 10120 Tallinn Estonia [email protected] Maarja Ojamaa Tallinn University Narva road 27 10120 Tallinn Estonia [email protected] Abstract: This article offers a comparative take on the ways audiovisual versus verbal digital archives model our understanding of the past. We focus on content metadata schemas and their role in modeling histories and framing the uses of audiovisual databases. Our empirical corpus includes verbal and audiovisual objects from the five-year period just before the World War II (1935-1939) as presented in two digital databases – the Analytic Bibliography of Estonian Journalism and the Estonian Film Database. The article compares how the different metadata schemas for newspaper articles and newsreels model their objects. As a consequence, metadata schemas shape contemporary perceptions of historical realities in different ways. Keywords: metadata, modelling systems, audiovisual archives, Estonia, 1930s, newsreels, cultural semiotics The amount and variety of information about the 20th century that we can freely access online is in every respect remarkable. Contemporary digital databases as Europeana, Internet Archives or NYPL Collections offer anyone interested a chance to go far beyond individual textbooks and occasional faded photographs: one can juxtapose materials in different modalities and compare or contrast diverse aspects of the past from various viewpoints. This applies to both users with general or hobbyist interest in the past as well as professional historians. The digital archival turn has evidently met a wide spectrum of responses.

But St. Petersburg’s three centuries have matured its material authenticity, recognizable tableaux and unique urban narratives, chiefly the Petersburg Text. The three of these, intertwined in their formation and development, created a distinctive place-identity. The aura arising from this distinctiveness functioned as a marketable code not only for St. Petersburg’s heritage industry, but also for a future-oriented engagement with post-Soviet hypercapitalism. Reflecting on both up-to-date scholarship and the actual cityscapes themselves, my dissertation will focus on the imaginative landscapes in the historic center of St.

I analyze different visual and narrative strategies developed by the directors of youth cinema during the Brezhnev period as mechanisms for circumventing ideological control over cultural production.

  • Mediation of Memory: Towards Transdisciplinary Perspectives in Current Memory Studies
    TRAMES, 2008, 12(62/57), 3, 243–263 MEDIATION OF MEMORY: TOWARDS TRANSDISCIPLINARY PERSPECTIVES IN CURRENT MEMORY STUDIES Preface to the special issue of Trames Ester Võsu, Ene Kõresaar, Kristin Kuutma University of Tartu DOI: 10.3176/tr.2008.3.01 1. Introduction Memory has become one of the buzzwords in today’s humanities and social sciences. Concepts like ‘collective memory’ (Halbwachs 1950), ‘lieux de mémoire’ (Nora 1989, 1996, 1998), ‘cultural memory’ (Bal et al. 1999), ‘social memory’ (Fentress and Wickham 1992, Misztal 2003), and many others catch our attention in the titles of recently published books and articles, in tables of contents and lists of keywords. We are witnessing an increasing ‘memory boom’ (Winter 2000) in humanities and social sciences and a new field of research – memory studies – has emerged and develops rapidly. Under these circumstances we should, more than ever, pose ourselves the question – what do we mean by ‘memory’? Is memory an object of study, a unit of research, or is it a theoretical perspective through which we investigate other phenomena? What are the differences between the concepts of memory and history or memory and tradition? In which aspects do processes of individual memory and collective memory correlate, and in which they diverge? How far can we extend the sub-concepts related to memory like remembering, forgetting, or trauma? And how can individuals’ remembering be juxtaposed to the construction of social memory? What is the agency of language or artefacts in producing memory, in reflecting the experience of temporality? What kind of potential, individual and collective, cultural or political, does the inversion of temporal order extend in narratives of memory? The current special issue aims to raise some of these questions while imple- menting an interdisciplinary perspective on particular phenomena that arise from these explorations, in order to consider different aspects of memory with particular focus on cultural memory.
