Abstract

Early in the archaic period of Greek history, Messenia was annexed and partially settled by its powerful neighbour, Sparta. Achieving independence in the fourth century BC, the inhabitants of Messenia set about trying to forge an identity for themselves separate from their previous identity as Spartan subjects, refunctionalising or simply erasing their Spartan heritage. Professor Luraghi provides a thorough examination of the history of Messenian identity and consequently addresses a range of questions and issues whose interest and importance have only been widely recognised by ancient historians during the last decade. By a detailed scrutiny of the ancient written sources and the archaeological evidence, the book reconstructs how the Messenians perceived and constructed their own ethnicity at different points in time, by applying to Messenian ethnicity insights developed by anthropologists and early medieval historians.

Abstract

Memory is one of the few psychological concepts with a truly ancient lineage. Presenting a history of the interrelated changes in memory tasks, memory technology and ideas about memory from antiquity to the late twentieth century, this book confronts psychology's 'short present' with its 'long past'. Kurt Danziger, one of the most influential historians of psychology of recent times, traces long-term continuities from ancient mnemonics and tools of inscription to modern memory experiments and computer storage. He explores historical discontinuities, showing how different kinds of memory became prominent at different times, and examines these changes in the context of specific themes including the question of truth in memory, distinctions between kinds of memory, the project of memory experimentation and the physical localization and conceptual location of memory. Daniziger's unique approach provides a historical perspective for understanding varieties of reproduction, narratives of the self and short-term memory.

Abstract

Die Gründungsverträge der Europäischen Gemeinschaft wurden am 25. März 1957 in Rom von Frankreich, der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, Italien, Belgien, den Niederlanden und Luxemburg unterzeichnet. Zwischenzeitlich ist aus dem Europa der sechs ein Zusammenschluss von nunmehr 27 Staaten geworden. Von der Vision der europäischen Einigung geleitet, wonach Krieg in Europa nur durch friedlichen Zusammenschluss der Völker zu verhindern ist, hat sich in einem langen Integrations- und Vertiefungsprozess die Europäische Union entwickelt.Fünf Jahrzehnte nach der Gründung des institutionell verfassten gemeinsamen Europa muss die Frage diskutiert werden, ob die Gemeinschaft auch eine von den Menschen getragene Identität besitzt. Elementarer Bestandteil jeder Identität ist das Bewusstsein eines gemeinsamen Gedächtnisses. Gibt es dies in Europa überhaupt? Was wird erinnert? Nur das halbe Jahrhundert seit den Römischen Verträgen? Oder existiert ein tiefer reichendes historisches Erinnern der Europäer jenseits des jeweiligen nationalen Gedächtnisses?Mit Beiträgen von Etienne François, Norbert Frei, Bronislaw Geremek, Anthony Giddens, Helmut König, Adolf Muschg, Karl Schlögel und Hans-Ulrich Wehler.
