Acts of Memory presents 15 tightly integrated essays that illustrate the active role of individual and cultural memory in rying the past to the present. Their essays coalesce around three topics: the need for memory and testimonial facilitation of memory, primarily in the case of historical and individual trauma; the site-specific nature of acts of memory, especially in geopolitically conflicted situations; and the potential contributions of acts of memory when facing the difficulties and needs of the present.
