Recensies en Artikelen
“This text is a cutting-edge contribution to Spanish heritage and landscape and memory studies. It is a seminal contribution to the visual and material culture analysis of post-jus bello, i.e., postwar reparative and transitional justice. […] In the context of the current resurgence of proto-fascist and overtly fascist movements in Europe and elsewhere, this project will be a major contribution to the cultural history of Fascism and post-Fascism that is urgently needed today in European public culture.”

Making Monuments from Mass Graves in Contemporary Spain
Resistance through Remembrance
De onderstaande tekst is niet beschikbaar in het Nederlands en wordt in het Engels weergegeven.
This book narrates how, beginning in 1936, bodies buried in mass graves during the Spanish War and subsequent dictatorship were turned into monuments. The book describes how the production of monuments evolved and what forms this process and these monuments took; it examines how the monuments were incorporated into society and used to influence public opinion; and it argues that this process was not simply based on the formal logic of tradition but instead reflected a conscious plan with a specific and rational end goal. As such, this book puts forward the idea that the monument as a material object became an expression of the historical consciousness of its producers, relating how different actors communicated their memories into meaningful gestures while limited by the material reality of integrating the bodies into a novel artefact. Finally, it contends that the people creating these monuments did not just bury their dead according to a funerary tradition but also sought to influence society.
