Congratulations to CMCI’s Dr Jessica Rapson on the publication of her edited volume The Transcultural Turn: Interrogating Memory Between and Beyond Borders.
This new book, co-edited with Lucy Bond, is in the interdisciplinary field of memory studies, in which CMCI has a particular strength. Jessica’s volume pays particular attention to transculturalism, which sees remembering as a fluid process in which commemorative tropes work to inform the representation of diverse events and traumas beyond national or cultural borders.
The Transcultural Turn: Interrogating Memory Between and Beyond Borders is published in Berlin by De Gruyter as part of their Media and Cultural Memory series.
