  • HIS 335: Culture,Memory and the Uses of the Past

    3.00 Credits
    University at Buffalo

    Credits: 3 Prerequisites: None Corequisites: None Type: LEC History is not something that simply happened but is produced, crafted and contested in different ways throughout the world. Such variety reflects different methods of recording and remembering the past, and different ways of organizing the past to make it culturally sensible. This course explores how the past is produced, who its practitioners are, and what counts as evidence and proof. Above all we consider how the past is utilized toward a range of aims that make it capable of speaking to what matters in the present. Our examination will extend from state archives and other written sources such as letters and diaries, to monuments, photographs and paths through the forest. Each source reflects different notions of a usable past, and different cultural and political reasons why a particular past is worth remembering. At every stage of the course we will ask how the past matters, we will examine the ways it is represented, and we will probe how claims about it imply different stakes and satisfy different ends.
