The book first shows how affect theorists have increasingly complemented more traditional archival research through the use of "academic memoir." This theoretical piece is then applied to memoir works by Caribbean writers Dionne Brand and Patrick Chamoiseau, and the final case study in the book interprets as memorial art Kara Walker's ephemeral 80,000 pound sugar sculpture of 2014. Memory as method; memory as archive; memorial as affect: this book looks at the interplay between archival sources on the one hand, and the affective memories, both personal and collective, that flow from, around, and into the constantly shifting record of the past. .Palgrave Studies in Affect Theory and Literary Criticism,2634-632XLiteraturePhilosophyAmericaLiteraturesCollective memoryLiterary TheoryNorth American LiteratureMemory StudiesLiteraturePhilosophy.AmericaLiteratures.Collective memory.Literary Theory.North American Literature.Memory Studies.153.12809.93353Johnson Erica Lauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut855633BOOK9910300009403321Cultural Memory, Memorials, and Reparative Writing1910303UNINA
