Between Memory Sites and Memory Networks       Between Memory Sites and Memory Networks Kerstin P. Hofmann Reinhard Bernbeck Ulrike Sommer (eds.) BERLIN STUDIES OF THE ANCIENT WORLD their past? And how did they do so before the age of computers, print- ing, writing? This book takes stock of earlier work on memory in the fi elds of history and the social sciences. Our collection also takes a new look at how past and present social groups have memorialized events and rendered them durable through materializations: con- tributors ask how processes and incidents perceived as negative and disruptive are nonetheless constitutive of group identities. Papers also contrast the monumental- izing treatment given to singular events imbued with a hegemonic meaning to more localized, diverse memory places and networks. As case studies show, such mem- oryscapes invite divergent, multivocal and subversive narratives. Various kinds of these imagined geographies lend themselves to practices of manipulation, preserva- tion and control. The temporal scope of the volume reaches from the late Neolithic to the recent past, resulting in a long-term and multi-focal perspective that demonstrates how the perception of past events changes, acquires new layers and is molded by di erent groups at di erent points in time. As several contributions show, these manipula- tions of the past do not always produce the anticipated results, however. Attempts at “post-factual history” are countered by the socially distributed, but spatially and materially anchored nature of the very process of memorialization. 45 · 45 Between Memory Sites and Memory Networks Kerstin P.

Imagining Community at Immigration Museums — 341 Preface This book has been a long time in the making. The set of contributions had its origin in a workshop that took place on the rd and th of May . One of our main goals was to assess the usefulness of Pierre Nora’s concept of “memory sites” or “realms of memory”,as the translation of his compendium is titled in English. Beyond Nora’s Francocentric case, books about memory sites are a fast-growing type of compendium in historical disciplines. The genre has been extended to a variety of archaeological con- texts, including Greek and Roman antiquity. The uncritical broadening of Nora’s idea that collective memory is concentrated in a select group of places and topics seemed to us a problem in need of reflection and discussion. Therefore, our suggestion for the workshop included three potential issues involving the relation between memory and place: What is the influence of disputes over the past for the construction of memory sites? What are general implications of the historically and politically controlled con- densation of memory in specific sites? And to what extent does the emphasis on such sites encourage commodification of the past? Many of the original presenters at the workshop wrote papers for this volume, while some others could not do so for a variety of reasons. In addition, we asked several scholars who had not been at the workshop to contribute. In terms of the cases discussed, the book still represents, for the most part, the original framework. However, we had already noticed during the workshop that the topic of memory sites sensu Nora was not as crucial to the assembled group as it seemed to us originally. As a consequence, this set of papers is more diverse than we had originally imagined. One aspect of the relationship between archaeology and memory came particularly to the fore: the role of politics and power, an issue that has also been highlighted recently in “critical heritage studies” as well as a “Competing Memories” conference in Amsterdam in October . During the workshop, Wolfgang Wippermann offered a guided tour to “Dahlem Memory Sites”,a practical, ambulatory addition to our discussions. It revealed the com- plexities of the academic landscape where the workshop took place. It was a peripheral urban space during the Second World War, when Werner Heisenberg and others worked on the Uranprojekt to make atomic energy useable for the Nazi wars, where the Kaiser Wil- helm Institut für Anthropologie, menschliche Erblehre und Eugenik analyzed human remains sent by Josef Mengele from Auschwitz to Berlin, but also where Rudi Dutschke is buried, the leader of the Berlin student protests of . The Topoi villa of the Freie Universität, where the workshop took place, is itself part of these contaminated mnemoscapes. In the s, Carl Neuberg lived with his family in this house. He was the director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institut für Biochemie. As a Jew, he was lucky to be able to leave for the U.S. shortly after the Nazis came to power in . Following that, SS henchmen usedthe rooms in which our discussions took place. As is often the case, memories are loaded both emotionally and ethically. “Negative heritage” and lieux de discorde come up repeatedly in this book. These notions are not simply of scholarly interest: unfortunately, conflicts over memory are part and parcel of extremely violent conditions in our present world. Disputes about the archaeological past have become ideological and economic fuel for present armed conflict, particularly in WesternAsia. This reaches from careless destruction of Iraqi archaeological sites under the eyes of Western occupation forces to the razing of Palmyrean monuments at the hands of the so-called Islamic State. The innocuous profession of being an archaeologist can become life-threatening in these regions, as the murder of Khaled al As’ad in August shows. The point is not to bemoan the destruction of monuments from a long gone past. Rather, we are in need of a new and peaceful role for memory and remembering. One step in this direction is an analysis of the multifaceted relations between memory and politics, a field of research in need of much more attention. Various people and institutions made this book possible. We thank especially Ste- fan Schreiber, Julia Schönicke, and Blandina Stöhr for assistance during the workshop. Stefanie Gänger, Claudia Näser, Susan Pollock and Felix Wiedemann kindly agreed to be our workshop discussants. Without Gisela Eberhardt, Nadine Riedl and Nicola Gaedicke the volume would never have appeared. We are grateful to the excellence clus- ter Topoi and its directors Michael Meyer and Gerd Grasshoff for financing the event and the labor connected with the resulting book. Kerstin P. Hofmann, Reinhard Bernbeck and Ulrike Sommer Berlin, August Reinhard Bernbeck, Kerstin P. Hofmann, Ulrike Sommer Mapping Memory, Space and Conflict Summary Our introduction to the volume sets the discussion about memory in archaeology into cur- rent contexts, establishes our reasons for producing this book and discusses a number of crucial aspects of memory, space, and identity. We provide a brief history of memory stud- ies with a focus on contributions from archaeology and discuss a number of topics that play important roles in the papers. These include the relations between forgetting and remem- bering, and between space, place and memory. Along with our authors, we emphasize that memory is a matter of practices, not just of mindsets. A further element in our discussions is the interface between memory, duration, and history. All of these issues coalesce in an important background theme, the political nature of various modes of memory. Keywords: Memory; cultural memory; realms of memory; Pierre Nora; forgetting.

This is done from a source-critical perspective because the innova- tions are discussed with the help of dynamic maps from the Topoi project Digital Atlas of Innovations. Besides indications of diffusion gradients influenced by special research conditions, exceptional waves of innovation can be detected for all three technologies in the discussed period. These waves of innovation cannot, however, be generalized but have to be understood on the basis of the respective technology traditions and lines of devel- opment specific to local areas. Monocentric diffusion theories can be clearly disproven, local technology developments and their converging in certain centrally situated regions have to be assumed instead. Similarly, the transfer of objects and their châine opératoire can only be detected rather infrequently, while the adaptation to local socio-economic and environmental factors can be demonstrated.

  • Annex Nº2 GEOLOGICAL HERITAGE
    Annex nº2 GEOLOGICAL HERITAGE Preface The geological heritage interest of Molina and Alto Tajo is based primarily on three factors: - A large continuous sedimentary series, ranging from the Ordovician to the present with little stratigraphic gaps and where major events are recorded in the last 400 million years of earth history. - A network of rivers that have shaped canyons, exposing this sedimentary series. - The scarcity of population, infrastructure and industrial development have preserved geological heritage in optimal conditions for study.

With respect to geological framework, de Molina-Alto Tajo, is situated in the Castilian Branch of Iberian Range. The materials from which the geology of this region are mostly Mesozoic, although there are also materials Palaeozoic and Cenozoic. Outcrops of Palaeozoic materials appear discontinuously forming a series of “massif”. These outcrops whose orientation is NW-SE, are restricted to the nucleus of large structures of Castilian Branch of the Iberian Range. From a cronostratigraphic point of view these materials exhibit some ages ranging from the Ordovician to the Permian. The main materials are slate and quartzite. As Mesozoic materials, make up the biggest part of the geology of the region of Molina and even large part of the province of Guadalajara. Triassic and Jurassic materials outcropping in the region are represented by a succession of clastic and carbonate interbedded with marly rocks units formed in continental environments and marine.

  • NEWSLETTER of the American Handel Society
    NEWSLETTER of The American Handel Society Volume XVIII, Number 1 April 2003 A PILGRIMAGE TO IOWA As I sat in the United Airways terminal of O’Hare International Airport, waiting for the recently bankrupt carrier to locate and then install an electric starter for the no. 2 engine, my mind kept returning to David Lodge’s description of the modern academic conference. In Small World (required airport reading for any twenty-first century academic), Lodge writes: “The modern conference resembles the pilgrimage of medieval Christendom in that it allows the participants to indulge themselves in all the pleasures and diversions of travel while appearing to be austerely bent on self-improvement.” He continues by listing the “penitential exercises” which normally accompany the enterprise, though, oddly enough, he omits airport delays. To be sure, the companionship in the terminal (which included nearly a dozen conferees) was anything but penitential, still, I could not help wondering if the delay was prophecy or merely a glitch. The Maryland Handel Festival was a tough act to follow and I, and perhaps others, were apprehensive about whether Handel in Iowa would live up to the high standards set by its august predecessor. In one way the comparison is inappropriate. By the time I started attending the Maryland conference (in the early ‘90’s), it was a first-rate operation, a Cadillac among festivals. Comparing a one-year event with a two-decade institution is unfair, though I am sure in the minds of many it was inevitable. Fortunately, I feel that the experience in Iowa compared very favorably with what many of us had grown accustomed Frontispiece from William Coxe, Anecdotes fo George Frederick Handel and John Christopher Smith to in Maryland.

    __________________________________________________________________________ 2 SWR 2 Musikstunde mit Rainer Damm, 12.12.13 Reisen in die Antike: Römische Kaiser 4 Heute mit Rainer Damm Unsere heutige Reise in die römische Antike führt uns in die Regierungszeit von Kaiser Tiberius, eine so tragische wie furchtbare Gestalt, wenn wir den den antiken Zeugnissen Glauben schenken wollen. Unter seiner Herrschaft erlebte das Imperium Romanum eine der verheerendsten militärischen Niederlagen seiner Geschichte. Mit der Konsequenz, dass Rom in den kommenden Jahrhunderten nie mehr ernsthafte Expansionsbestrebungen in Richtung Germanien unternahm. Sie ahnen, wovon ich spreche. Von der Varus-Schlacht, auch Schlacht im Teutoburger Wald genannt oder Herrmannschlacht, die in der zweiten Hälfte des Jahres 9 unserer Zeitrechnung stattfand. Georg Friedrich Händel: Ouvertüre zur Oper Germanico Ensemble Il Rossignolo / Ottaviano Tenerani CD dhm 88697860452 Disc 1, track 1, 4’10 Das war die Ouverture zur Oper Germanico von Georg Friedrich Händel in einer Aufnahme mit dem Ensemble Il Rossignolo unter der Leitung von Ottaviano Tenerani. Dieses Werk wurde erst 2007 bei Forschungsarbeiten in der Bibliothek des Konservatoriums von Florenz entdeckt, und es dürfte, nach allem was wir bislang wissen, in Händels italienischen Jahren zwischen 1706 und 1709 entstanden sein, d.h. er schrieb es als Anfangszwanziger. Alle Indizien sprechen dafür, dass das Werk für ein privates Fest hochgestellter Kreise bestimmt war, die dem habsburgischen Haus Österreich nahestanden. Aber zurück zu Kaiser Tiberius, in dessen Amtszeit die Handlung dieser Händel-Oper fällt, und seinem Feldherrn Germanicus. Dem wird ein triumphaler Empfang bei der Rückkehr nach Rom bereitet. Die Konsuln werden nicht müde, die Heldentaten des Siegreichen zu preisen. Dem Jubel und den Huldigungen des Volkes schließen sich die Dankesbezeugungen von Kaiser Tiberius an.
