Trauma and Care: Abandoned Memories in Egypt and Saudi Arabia / Lived Experiences of an Egyptian Family in the DiasporaElgamal, Raghad January 2022 (has links)
My research explores my Egyptian family’s migration from Egypt to Saudi Arabia and
Canada. It examines the role of photography to document memories of family reunions,
migration, and stories. The objective of my study is to foster dialogue and raise awareness about the lived experiences of an Egyptian family from the 1950s to contemporary times. The
methodology used in this series is open-ended interviews and textual analysis with family
members: my mother, father and maternal grandfather. My research aims to reconstruct the
historical effects of migration and the lived experience of an Egyptian family in the diaspora. It
looks into intergenerational psychological trauma, its several interfaces and role in familial
relationships, and modernity's emergence in Egypt. I aim to explore transnational identities
through storytelling and photography that capture historical and contemporary movements—the
role of these movements in producing complex versions of identities, belonging and trauma. / Thesis / Master of Arts (MA)

The creation of medieval history in LuxembourgPéporté, Pit January 2008 (has links)
In the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg, the Middle Ages provide several of the most important historical reference points for national identity. This thesis analyses how this period was given its significance. It studies the presentation of several medieval figures through historiography from their own lifetime to the present, how they entered collective memory and a national narrative of history, and how the symbolic values attributed to them shifted according to changing political needs. In addition, it identifies those figures that were forgotten, so as to explore the mechanisms of historiographical selection. The purported founder of Luxembourg is the tenth-century Count Sigefroid, who was (wrongly) regarded as the first ‘count of Luxembourg’ by the late sixteenth century. In his posthumous career he became the builder of the local castle and city, the creator of the country and father of the nation. He is often joined by his mythological fish-tailed wife Melusine, borrowed from a late medieval French roman that already hints at links to the rulers of Luxembourg. The two founders are linked to later themes through Countess Ermesinde. She was a thirteenth-century ruler, rediscovered by nineteenth-century liberals as an early precursor to their political ideals, while a group of Belgian Jesuits used her to foster a pilgrimage tradition. Historiography of the past two hundred years preferred her persona rather than her two husbands’ for creating a continuity within the different medieval dynasties, adding to their national character. Her descendant John of Bohemia was transformed quickly into the national hero par excellence. This process had its origin in late medieval literature where his ‘heroic’ death at the battle of Crécy is remembered. His tomb within the city of Luxembourg helped to keep him in local memory, while the loss of his remains to Prussia in the early nineteenth century created simmering discontent that lasted until their recovery in 1946. Interestingly, John stands for the pinnacle of a glorious age, whereas his successor Emperor Sigismund tended to embody the miserable decline of an era, despite having been endowed with many crowns and titles. This thesis borrows some of its theoretical framework from the study of lieux de mémoire, and makes use of a broad range of different sources, from historical writing to literature, visual art and popular gimmickry.

The dynamics of German remembering : the Rosenstraße protest in historical debate and cultural representationPotter, Hilary January 2014 (has links)
This thesis examines patterns of German memory and identity construction as reflected in historical debates around the Rosenstraße protest in 1943 and cultural representations of it since 1990. It positions them within the wider context of debates in Germany on resistance on the one hand and shifting conceptions of national identity on the other. It argues that although the increase in public interest in the protest may appear to be a consequence of unification and the ensuing shift in coming to terms with the past, it in fact precedes them. Drawing on the work in cultural memory theory of Maurice Halbwachs, Jan Assmann, Benedict Anderson, Eric Hobsbawm and others, arguments about the social construction of memory and identity are employed to show how and why patterns of memory, attitudes and ideas about the Nazi past, as expressed through different media of memory, have shifted and how these are tied to conceptions of national identity. This thesis focuses first on debate amongst historians, before moving on to discuss popular history, biography, film and the different forms of memorialisation. It asks why the protest has become a more prominent feature of cultural memory since unification, and demonstrates that its increased currency is a product of trends in resistance historiography and in Holocaust discourses. It argues that cultural memories are multi-layered and developed in relation to one another. The interplay between these different media is therefore analysed, with particular attention given to who is involved in shaping memories of the protest and why, how these memories and surrounding debates have altered over time, and what this indicates about continuing impact of, and attitudes towards the past. This allows for a consideration of the multiple notions of national identity which these representations foster, and an exploration of how conceptions of identity influence what is remembered. The question is asked whether the Rosenstraße resistance narrative has, since the 1980s, facilitated the emergence of a more inclusive and a more nuanced remembering, particularly as this narrative highlights the complexities of opposition and attempts to integrate conceptions of Jewish and non-Jewish suffering, centring them within the one narrative. It asks whether these notions are juxtaposed, and whether either victimhood or German responsibility is relativised. The thesis explores how Germans’ relationship with Jews is reconfigured, how German-Jewish solidarity is foregrounded, who is represented as victim, and of what. At the same time, the extent to which a more hybrid sense of identity, one that transcends national and ethnic boundaries, is promoted through the representations of the Rosenstraße protest is also considered. Lastly, it is argued that the competing representations of events in Rosenstraße which are examined here exemplify the fraught, complex and politicised dynamics of Germany’s historical memory, which is characterised by tension between the wish for normalization and the desire to maintain a critical awareness of the past in which opposition may be recognised but accountability is not relativised. The thesis explores which view predominates and speculates whether this is likely to shift in the near future.

Previous issue date: 2008-09-10 / This work aims to demonstrate the existence of a local identity related to the material and immaterial inheritance that has been built from the territorial configuration that the extinct Iguaçu River Waterway, in the State of Parana, Brazil, had provided for the organization of the space in question. It is analyzed the current range of this waterway, using preferentially the mnemonic references from the society involved by it. It is based on two key concepts from Cultural Geography: cultural inheritance and social memory. The spatial delimitation, that is a basis for this research, are the municipal districts of Porto Amazonas, São Mateus do Sul and União da Vitória, in the state of Paraná, and the municipal district of Porto União, in Santa Catarina, amounting 340 km of fluvial bed used by the steamboats. The period when Iguaçu River was navigated was important to the economy of both states, a time distinguished by strong financial flux, specially the cycles of maté and timber, that were both linked to steam transport, which propitiated the appearance of a territory with characteristics of its own, whose organization presents economical, social and cultural elements that have made it so peculiar. It inventoried the tangible inheritance of the extinct waterway in the four municipal districts studied, and performed interviews with their populations, with the aim of verify the representativity of the waterway in the memories of the inhabitants and of the former workers of the waterway. The study proposition for the territorial organization and the demonstration of the existence of a social identity related to cultural inheritance follows the branch of Cultural Geography, considering the feelings and ideas of a group about the space and its cultural manifestations, as derived from a specific activity that has left its legacy. / Este trabalho tem por objetivo demonstrar a existência de uma identidade local relacionada ao patrimônio material e imaterial, construído a partir da configuração territorial que a extinta Hidrovia do Rio Iguaçu, no Estado do Paraná, proporcionou na organização do espaço em questão. É analisado o espaço de abrangência da hidrovia na atualidade, utilizando-se preferencialmente as referências mnemônicas da sociedade envolvida. Baseia-se em dois conceitos chaves da Geografia Cultural: o patrimônio cultural e a memória social. A delimitação espacial, base para esta pesquisa, são os municípios paranaenses de Porto Amazonas, São Mateus do Sul e União da Vitória, e ainda, o município de Porto União em Santa Catarina, perfazendo um total de 340 km de leito fluvial utilizados pelos vapores. O período da navegação no Rio Iguaçu foi importante para a economia estadual, época distinta de intensa movimentação financeira, em especial o ciclo da erva-mate e da madeira, ambas atreladas ao transporte a vapor que proporcionou o surgimento de um território com características próprias, na qual a sua organização vem apresentar elementos econômicos, sociais e culturais que a tornaram singular. Foi Inventariado o patrimônio tangível da extinta hidrovia nos quatro municípios pesquisados e realizadas entrevistas com as populações, tendo como objetivo constatar a representatividade que a hidrovia possui na memória dos habitantes e ex-trabalhadores da hidrovia. A proposta de estudo da organização territorial e a demonstração da existência de uma identidade social vinculada ao patrimônio cultural, segue o ramo da Geografia Cultural ao considerar os sentimentos e as idéias de um grupo sobre o espaço e suas manifestações culturais advindas de uma atividade específica que deixou o seu legado.
