#Memorialisation
I recently wrote an Intro to a special issue on German colonialism and only then realised that while Germans often think they are late in memorialisation of colonialism, they are actually pretty on par with the rest of Western Europe

Like, not to wish to hasten that day but really what has she done beyond ‘(re-)married a royal’ to deserve memorialisation?

Just had promising news about a memorialisation project that I've been involved in: a chance to read some silenced voices back into the city's collective memory. More once it's official.

Until you do that, and exhibit less selective memorialisation, everyone will have justification in believing you think brown lives don’t matter.

Need me a man to read my original research on cultural memory and public memorialisation functionality out loud while I edge him

Belated thought - one of the minor tragedies of the USSR is how much it blocked this process of memorialisation and documentation until a brief time around its collapse and before the neo-Brezhnevian and explicitly Russian view of Putin’s Russia came in and then, well, simple age does the rest.

I don't think it's internet culture per se. It's Holocaust memorialisation and education that has failed on a spectacular level.

Auckland museum staying true to the museum’s colonial roots and memorialisation of war and violence.

Fucking unbelievable. He is tagged in the photo and his account has memorialisation on it!

The right of the dead to stay dead has been steadily eroded over the past two hundred years as technologies of memorialisation have proliferated; digital technologies represent an acceleration rather than a change in trajectory.
I want to spotlight the clarity and beauty of the language Kelsey uses: the dead have a right to stay dead.

They do. We're going to need to develop standardized, universal, opt-out-only legal means to allow them to.

To allow /us/ to, for we will all be citizens in the kingdom of the dead in time.
The dead have a right to remain dead. An animated skin put over a computer model and given the same name as the dead son of grieving parents is a cursed golem and a full delusion. By interviewing the computer model, Acosta has asked us to accept this as true or real. Gun control deserves better.

Also, it was literally a 2010 UKIP manifesto commitment to reintroduce beavers to the UK, so would actually be a great memorialisation of how the party has helped shape the country
i, for one, am delighted that we finally have a definition of “woke”

We were so pleased to welcome professor Sarah Wagner to the wall today. She is the principal investigator for @ritualsinthemaking.bsky.social, a 5-year study on covid death, mourning, and memorialisation. We had lots to talk about! ❤️

Anyway, the chapter I’m writing at the moment is essentially about the palimpsest of the Acropolis and how the Athenians utilised concepts of active forgetting and memorialisation to process the trauma of war.

Today, one of my jobs is to complete the introduction to a wonderful book of contributions on Austen's work, life and legacy called Jane Austen Encounters where I am writing about memorialisation. #JaneAusten 3/3

Dit autrement, le sujet est très bien connu par ailleurs, on est face à un cas chimiquement pur de mémorialisation glissante : le spectre du catharisme a pris une ampleur difforme avec le temps, revêtant l'image d'une hérésie ancrée dans tout le tissu sociopolitique de la région Languedocienne.

If you’re at a loose end in Glasgow tomorrow why not come along and consider the politics of statues, memorialisation and empire with us @govanhillbaths.bsky.social

The date of this rune stone points to how the practice of monumental memorialisation continued well into the Christian era. The practice most likely came to an end when an organised church absorbed much of the power previously held by local aristocrats.
Monumental rune stone from Uppland in Sweden. Dating to around 1080 -1120, the stone was set up by Thorsteinn in memory of his mother (Ingithora), father (Sveinn) and brother (Thorir). New part of the collections at the Ashmolean. 📸 My own. #StandingStoneSunday #Ashmolean

4. Paul Fussell - The Great War and Modern Memory

No doubt terrible as history and limited in all sorts of ways, but revolutionary in its interplay between memorialisation, literature and the great war

Great article taking the long view of Holocaust Memorialisation in the UK.

If your memorialisation of Rod Liddell doesn’t start and end with his violence against women, paedophilia, racism, and transphobia then I don’t want to read it and I will be judging you.

A reminder from Somerset of the inter-generational significance of hillforts as locations in the landscape deemed appropriate for memorialisation. Reminds me very much of Kinver where the memorial on the hill was succeeded by one in the village when the survivors could no longer make the trek
The Iron Age ramparts of Ham (Hamdon) Hill #Somerset enclose over 85 hectares, making it the largest hillfort in Britain

Ramparts are most dramatic at the NW by the Stoke-sub-Hamdon war memorial, although quarrying for Hamstone has removed much of the interior here
