Contained Memory Conference 2010
Thu, Dec 09 to Fri, Dec 10 2010
Museum of New Zealand, Te Papa, Tongarewa, www.tepapa.govt.nz, Wellington, NZ
Call for Participation
The conference seeks to bring together multidisciplinary perspectives in a discourse on contained memory. By encompassing a wide variety of ways of conceiving memory through different cultural and theoretical orientations and disciplinary backgrounds, it is hoped this conference can build a nexus of contained memories.
Possible Contained Memory sessions: The Land / Earth / Landscape, Containing public memory, Rituals of memory, Site / Space / Time, Memory and the senses / Autobiography, The human mind.
Because of the geographic location of the conference it is envisaged that some papers will respond to contained memory in Aotearoa New Zealand and the Pacific.
