This book is a phenomenological investigation of the interrelations of tradition, memory, place and the body. Drawing upon philosophers such as Husserl, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, Gadamer, and Ricoeur, Janet Donohoe uses the idea of a palimpsest to argue that layers of the past are carried along as traditions, through places and bodies, such that we can speak of memory as being written upon place and place as being written upon memory. She engages in ongoing discussions about the importance of place in dialogue with theorists such as Jeff Malpas and Ed Casey, and focuses on analysis of monuments and memorials to investigate how such deliberate places of collective memory can be ideological, or can open us to the past and different traditions. Remembering Places: A Phenomenological Study of the Relationship between Memory and Place appeals to the common experiences in which we return to places of memory and discovering that those places, and memories, have changed. Such concrete examples make it possible to discover how traditions can span generations while still allowing for openness to the new, and describing how places of memory call us to take up, but also critique, our traditions.
