He follows with an analysis of the implications of this scholarship for our thinking about history itself, with attention to such issues as the mnemonics of historical time, and the encounter between representation and experience in historical understanding. His book provides insight into the way interest in the concept of memory - as opposed to long-standing alternatives, such as myth, tradition, and heritage - has opened new vistas for scholarship not only in cultural history but also in shared ventures in memory studies in related fields in the humanities and social sciences.HistoriographyIntellectual life—HistoryHistory—PhilosophyMemory Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/711010Intellectual Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/729000Philosophy of Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/711030Historiography.Intellectual life—History.History—Philosophy.Memory Studies.Intellectual Studies.Philosophy of History.900Hutton Patrick Hauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut252594BOOK9910254791703321The Memory Phenomenon in Contemporary Historical Writing2007693UNINA
