In this book, Jeffrey Blustein provides a systematic and philosophically rigorous account of a morality of memory. Drawing on a broad range of philosophical and humanistic literatures, he offers a novel examination of memory and our relations to people and events from our past, the ways in which memory is preserved and transmitted, and the moral responsibilities associated with it. Blustein treats topics of responsibility for one's own past; historical injustice and the role of memory in doing justice to the past; the relationship of collective memory to history and identity; collective and individual obligations to remember those who have died, including those who are dear to us; and the moral significance of bearing witness. 606 $aMemory (Philosophy) 606 $aEthics 606 $aConduct of life 615 0$aMemory (Philosophy) 615 0$aEthics. 615 0$aConduct of life. 676 $a170 700 $aBlustein$b Jeffrey$01085853 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820721203321 996 $aThe moral demands of memory$94078384 997 $aUNINA
