Abstract

Heritage has burgeoned over the past quarter of a century from a small élite preoccupation into a major popular crusade. Everything from Disneyland to the Holocaust Museum, from the Balkan wars to the Northern Irish troubles, from Elvis memorabilia to the Elgin Marbles bears the marks of the cult of heritage. In this acclaimed 1998 book David Lowenthal explains the rise of this obsession with the past and examines its power for both good and evil.

Abstract

Thema's die aan de orde komen zijn onder meer : de onuitroeibaarheid van elitevorming en machtsongelijkheid die we ook in democratieën aantreffen ; negatieve en positieve waarderingen van het machtsmotief ; emancipatieprocessen als een nieuwe ontwikkelingsfase in de machtsstrijd ; complicaties van de legitimatieproblematiek ; de transformatie van het machtsmotief in de moderne burgerlijk-liberale cultuur ; het verval van de discipline als gemeenschapswaarde in die cultuur ; de inmiddels mondiale strijd tussen verschillende concepties van beschaving en de daarmee samenhangende ontwikkelingsproblematiek ; het beschavingsconflict als meest fundamentele machtsstrijd en de mondialisering van het beschavingsconflict in onze tijd ; en het verval van authentiek historisch besef als consequentie van het individualiseringsproces.

Abstract

Throughout Europe, narratives about the past circulate at a dizzying speed, and producing and selling these narratives is big business. In museums, in cinema and opera houses, in schools, and even on the Internet, Europeans are using the power of performance to craft stories that ultimately define the ways their audiences understand and remember history. Performing the Past offers unparalleled insights into the philosophical, literary, musical, and historical frameworks within which the past has entered into the European imagination. The essays in this volume, from such internationally renowned scholars as Reinhart Koselleck, Jan Assmann, Jane Caplan, Marianne Hirsch, Leo Spitzer, Peter Burke, and Alessandro Portelli, investigate various national and disciplinary traditions to explain how Europeans see themselves in the past, in the present, and in the years to come.

Abstract

A civilizing project, as described in this book, is a kind of interaction between peoples, in which one group, the civilizing center, interacts with other groups (the peripheral peoples) in terms of a particular kind of inequality. In this interaction, the inequality between the civilizing center and the peripheral peoples has its ideological basis in the center's claim to a superior degree of civilization, along with a commitment to raise the peripheral peoples' civilization to the level of the center, or at least closer to that level.

Abstract

Many of the traditions which we think of as very ancient in their origins were not in fact sanctioned by long usage over the centuries, but were invented comparatively recently. This book explores examples of this process of invention - the creation of Welsh and Scottish 'national culture'; the elaboration of British royal rituals in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; the origins of imperial rituals in British India and Africa; and the attempts by radical movements to develop counter-traditions of their own. It addresses the complex interaction of past and present, bringing together historians and anthropologists in a fascinating study of ritual and symbolism which poses new questions for the understanding of our history.
