An Examination of the New England Holocaust Memorial

Nold, Christine 24 June 2008 (has links)
The New England Holocaust Memorial was dedicated on 22 October 1995 in Boston, Massachusetts following a process of development and design that lasted over ten years. This study examines the progress of the memorial project, and in doing so, addresses the connection between collective memory and identity. In addition, it places the New England Holocaust Memorial in the context of American Holocaust commemoration, emphasizing throughout the role of public discussion and debate in the commemorative process. Mostly importantly, this study confronts the three debates central to the memorial project: 1) the debate over whether or not the memorial was to commemorate the liberators, 2) the debate over the memorial’s location on Boston’s “Freedom Trail,” and 3) the debate over whether the memorial should represent the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust or victims of Nazi Germany in general. An examination of the history of the New England Holocaust Memorial, this study contributes to existing scholarship on Holocaust commemoration in the United States, and illustrates the importance of discussion and debate as forms of commemoration.

Treadwell Memorial

Downey, Frances K. 30 June 2015 (has links)
This is a memorial to gold mining in Southeast Alaska. The structure takes visitors from the Treadwell trail onto the edge of a popular local beach, reclaiming a forgotten place that was once the largest gold mine in the world. A tangible tribute to this obscure period of history, this building kindles a connection between artifacts and the community. It is a liminal space, connecting ocean and mountain, past and present, civilization and wilderness. An investigation of the Treadwell Gold Mining complex influenced its form and function. Its foundation is two deep concrete footings that achieve stability in the loose tidal flat sand. Its building assembly is a result of model studies to understand the connections between the central wall, roof, and floor. This is the end result of a desire to build a meaningful place in Alaska. / Master of Architecture

Memorial, What do these stones mean to you?

Miller, William David 12 June 2001 (has links)
What do these stones mean to you? At some point in man's history, there came a moment in time when he realized an inherent need to be remembered. Whether it was man's first sin and its immediate consequences of earthly mortality. Or whether it was the progress and development on an evolutionary scale where man emerges and with it invention and time to contemplate his existence. I cannot say. There is however a moment when man discovered the concept of self and the reality of death. I am. I think. I will. My hands... My spirit... My sky... My forest... This earth is mine... What must I say besides? These are the words. This is the answer. 1. With this answer, this knowledge, the concept of memorial was born. Man's physical manifestation of his existence in this world. We recognized the power of objects - of Architecture. Stones were raised uprightto mark open land. Planted deep in the earth like artificial trees, these tall shafts became signposts of permanence, of civilized life. These monuments, towers, obelisks, pyramids, and the like command attention and mark a center. They lay claim to space and give us something to be next to... They help us inhabit places and stand in for us when were not there. 2. If we are not there and we can not represent ourselves, can it be these stones have a soul? / Master of Architecture
