Traumatic pasts, literary afterlives, and transcultural memory: new directions of literary and media memory studies
This article presents new directions of literary and media memory studies. It distinguishes between (1) the study of ‘traumatic pasts’, i.e. representations of war and violence in literature and other media, (2) diachronic and intermedial approaches to ’literary afterlives’ and (3) recent insights into the inherent transculturality of memory and their consequences for literary and media studies. Keywords: cultural memory studies, literature and memory, media and memory, transcultural memory
