Abstract:
Political memoirs form an accessible primary source for the political scientist, but there is considerable disagreement about their usefulness and reliability. Memoirs can be classified firstly according to whether their chief focus is the ethos, the doctrines, or the policy making of political parties, and secondly according to the principal means employed in their compilation - such as diaries, private and official papers, or personal reminiscences. Examples of these different types of memoir written by members of the Thatcher Government are analysed to demonstrate their uses and limitations.

Abstract:
Stanisław Pigoń’s (1885–1968) Memoir as a Text about Education This article is a reflection on Stanislaw Pigoń’s memoirs: Z Komborni w świat. Wspomnienia młodości [From Kombornia into the world. Memoirs of youth]. This primary source is of a high pedagogical value. I analyze various threads of this memoir from an educational angle. The memoir allows to see how Pigoń’s values were built by his parents during his childhood and then further developed by him in his adult life in academia. I show the role of those values in creating his own character and personality. Pigoń’s memoir causes readers to rethink their own values, it inspires efforts at personal improvement, and it has a deep pedagogical message.

Abstract:
The history of wars and military conflicts belongs to the current topics of scientific research in modern historiography. An important place in their study belongs to historical sources, in particular memoirs. This article is devoted to the study of the formation and combat path of the Ukrainian self-defence legion based on the memoirs of its members. It is noted that Ukrainian military memoirs of the Second World War are characterized by the political and ideological views of the authors, in addition to the typical separation of memories according to the social characteristics of the memoirist. It has been established that the concept of Ukrainian military memoirs is quite conditional. According to the authors, the main feature of assigning memories to this type is the presence of the idea of struggle for Ukrainian statehood. The article presents a short historical tour of the Ukrainian self-defence legion, the main focus is on highlighting its combat path based on the memories of the participants. It was noted that the memoirs of the legion members were published abroad, primarily in the countries of North America, given the forced emigration of the authors. The authors elaborated and included in the research the memoirs of O. Horodyskyi, M. Karkots-Vovk and K. Hirniak, published at different times in the second half of the 20th century. It has been established that the authors of memoirs mainly describe events that they directly witnessed. Each of the authors provides a description of the events and draws conclusions not only by observing certain processes, but also expresses his attitude and gives an assessment of the events. At the same time, the value of memoirs has been noted as historical sources containing information that is almost never found in official documents. Among it, first of all, it is worth highlighting everyday aspects, the morale of the military, relations with the command, etc. It has been established that Ukrainian military memoirs dedicated to the Ukrainian self-defence legion not only describe the history of this military formation, but also highlight broader issues of the Second World War. The article notes the need to adhere to a critical analysis of memories, because they contain a significant influence of the authors’ personal experience, and, accordingly, subjective assessments of events and phenomena.

Abstract:
Four published memoirs refute culturally dominant ideas about severe mental illness as personal weakness, as something shameful, and as a condition that necessarily leads to isolation and disenfranchisement. The narrative structure and content of the memoirs reveal that people’s experience differs from the hegemonic discourse: while narrating symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and acceptance of the illness, all four authors present themselves as accomplished, self-possessed, and socially integrated. Their memoirs, and the act of narrating their experiences with mental illness, challenge the established cultural discourse of mental illness as limitation. The narratives help change that discourse and our social attitudes toward people with mental illness.

Abstract:
Political terror was a distinctive phenomenon of the Soviet era, affecting broad segments of the population of the USSR. In addition to the official traditional sources on the history of this period (statistics, personal files of prisoners, court materials, periodicals), sources of personal origin play an important role – diaries, letters, interviews and memoirs of prisoners of camps and special settlers. Of particular interest among other sources of personal origin on the history of repression in the USSR are collections of memoirs of the repressed. The largest collection of memoirs is presented on the resource of the Sakharov Center "Memories of the Gulag and their authors". The texts of memoirs posted on this electronic resource have become the main source of this research. Based on the materials of the resource, a full-text thematic collection of memoirs was created and analyzed using the methods of content analysis, network analysis and statistical analysis. A comparative analysis of the reflection of camp life on the pages of memoirs of male and female prisoners is carried out. The analysis suggests that men and women converge in the fundamental aspects of the perception of camps: regardless of gender, the camp stage of life became the most traumatic and was remembered by former prisoners in similar tones. At the same time, neither the gender of the authors of the memoirs, nor the profession, nor the age at the time of arrest, nor the number of years that prisoners were forced to spend in camps globally affect these general perception trends. There are particular features inherent in individual subgroups, both among women and men, of the perception of camps, but in general the perception is the same, and it is the general features of the perception of camp life that are brought to the fore, overshadowing the particular elements. This can serve as a confirmation of the thesis that the collection of memoirs collected and studied in the framework of this study is a mass source.

Abstract:
Memoirs of Wirydianna Fiszerowa as a valuable source of historical data The purpose of this article is to present the work of Wirydianna Fiszerowa, entitled Dzieje moje własne i osób postronnych. Wiązanka spraw poważnych, ciekawych i błahych (Memoirs of myself and others. A mixture of serious, interesting and trivial matters). This incredible story of life in face of the constant threat of war and of living through several political upheavals, all intertwined with personal dramas of an 18th-century woman, makes Fiszerowa's diary unique in the context of Polish memoir writing. The correlation of history and individual experiences of Wirydianna Fiszerowa herself are inseparable elements forming the narrative space of her diary. Thanks to this, Fiszerowa's memoirs are a very important source of historical data, as well as a valuable collection of universal values for future readers. The connection between memoirs or autobiographical literature and history is another issue on which this study is focused. The author of this article aims to present that old literature plays a fundamental role in understanding history, and therefore aids in the interpretation of texts from remote epochs and different cultures.Keywords: history; diary; memoir; autobiography; war; woman;

Abstract:
Although only a decade in age separates each one from the next, the women whose life stories are discussed here represent three distinct Holocaust generations of Hungarian-speaking women. I aim to examine the recently published memories/memoirs of these three women whose narratives are all centered in the Holocaust when the deportations began in Hungary in 1944. Their personal stories are placed within a larger socio-historical context, but treat matters which come within the personal knowledge of the writer and therefore offer precisely the kind of alternative micro-history often provided by women’s narratives. All three authors also have in common that they left their homeland as young adults and hence their stories arguably belong more broadly to the most important subgenre of life writing today. While such writing is produced by both genders, writing by females predominates. My aim is, in part, to examine in the texts under discussion the three autobiographers as self-historians in their retrospective and crafted stories told (and retold) in different contexts, so that their life stories are not merely a recapitulation of past events but rather their creation of personal narrative identities.

Abstract:
Unusual for traditional literary criticism, the article examines the problem of genre attribution of memories that have existed for a long time (from the seventeenth – eighteenth centuries) as a form of presentation in Russian literature. This genre type turns out to be a conditional focus of the history of civilization, as well as a concentrate of thought and feeling of an individual member of society. But the tactics and possibilities of a comprehensive examination of memoirs have not yet been identified. As a result, the most highlighted thesis of consideration is the following: in the process of assessing the informational richness of a memoir text, its characteristic individual tonality should by no means be considered a disadvantage. On the contrary, personal judgments contained in memories increase their value as historical information.

Abstract:
The artist Moisey Fradkin (1904–1974) was a bright talented person in a brilliant galaxy of Ukrainian artists of the late 1920s – mid 1930s. He was a direct participant in the process of forming a special national “face” of graphic art. His works, which were exhibited at numerous foreign exhibitions in Europe and the United States, were noted as “strong and magical.” However, the further Fradkin’s creative destiny was not triumphant – after a very bright surge of original talent, his art was muted in the Procrustean bed of the Stalinist ideology, from about the end of the 1930s to the 1960s. He did not lose his skills, but only at the end of his life, full of wise experience, Fradkin again acquired bright energy and youthful enthusiasm in his work. Fradkin was a widely educated person, he taught at the Kharkiv Art Institute, was an active illustrator, author of easel compositions and graphic miniatures-exlibrises, worked in the field of industrial graphics for many years, headed the section of decorative and applied arts of the Kharkiv Club of Exlibrisists, collected a huge library. He and his wife, H. Krieger put together a unique collection of paintings, graphics and decorative and applied arts (more than 4000 items), which was later inherited by the Kharkiv Art Museum. The museum’s archives contain scattered sheets with fragments of Fradkin’s memoirs about his years of study at the Kharkiv Art College-Institute, which emotionally describe the time of the rapid reform of art education, which was full of contradictions. The article is based on these, not completely deciphered notes, and on the personal memoirs of the author of the article, who was familiar with the artist in the last four years of his life.

"Perspectives of the River Plate around the time of Rosas : an analysis based upon the personal correspondence, private memoirs and published accounts of British settlers, as well as works by creole authors." Thesis, University of St Andrews, 1996. http://hdl.handle.net/10023/992.
Abstract:
This thesis draws inspiration from the emergence of cultural studies as an academic pursuit, in addition to the current renewal of interest in the relationship between literary works and their socio-cultural milieux, to bring together an assortment of textual traces pertaining to the River Plate around the era of Juan Manuel de Rosas, governor of Buenos Aires and de facto dictator of Argentina for most of the period 1829-1852. The main texts analysed range from private documents relating to two Scottish settler families, through accounts published by British citizens with first-hand knowledge of the region (Un inglés, Cinco años en Buenos Aires and Beaumont, Travels in Buenos Ayres and the Adjacent Provinces), to three influential pieces of early Argentinian literature (Echeverria's El matadero, Mármol's Amalia and Sarmiento's Facundo). One justification of this apparently eclectic approach lies in the prominence accorded to the incomer in the thought of liberal Platine intellectuals, a concern evinced in their literary production. The methodology involves examining the representation of certain fundamental topics across this range of written artefacts, observing frequent points of thematic convergence amongst the various texts. In this fashion, I construct an image of the River Plate region around the Rosas period, whilst also appraising the degree to which early British settlers matched the idealized notion of the immigrant present in liberal creole writings. The study is divided into four main chapters, supplemented by an introduction, conclusion and appendix. The first chapter summarizes the historical context of the young Platine republics; the second deals with the themes of society, community and family, the third focuses upon religion; the fourth considers perspectives of politics, dictatorship and civil war. The appendix consists of an unpublished settler autobiography, a remarkable account of the tribulations faced on a daily basis in the developing Argentina.

Abstract:
Cette thèse vise à analyser un phénomène mental largement négligé dans les débats philosophiques actuels: les souvenirs personnels. Bien que l'analyse soit philosophique, l'approche méthodologique est interdisciplinaire afin d'intégrer des recherches empiriques en sciences cognitives. La première partie présente un cadre général pour mieux comprendre ce que sont les souvenirs personnels, la façon dont nous accédons à notre passé personnel et à quoi nous accédons de notre passé personnel. Le chapitre 1 présente les théories traditionnelles de la mémoire: le réalisme direct et le représentationalisme dans leurs différentes versions, ainsi que quelques objections. Je défends ici une forme particulière de représentationalisme qui repose sur la distinction entre le contenu, l'objet intentionnel et l'objet ontologique d'un souvenir. Le chapitre 2 explore les contenus possibles de nos souvenirs personnels, qui s'avèrent hétérogènes, même incarnés et externes, alors que le chapitre 3 analyse les possibles objets intentionnels, avec un intérêt particulier pour les événements passés. La deuxième partie de la thèse explore un aspect de nos souvenirs personnels qui a été omis dans la première partie: les sens dans lesquels notre passé personnel est appréhendé en tant que personnel. Le chapitre 4 examine la façon dont le «soi» intervient dans la construction de nos souvenirs personnels et détermine leur contenu. Les chapitres 5 et 6 se concentrent sur l'analyse de ce qui semble être l'aspect le plus subjectif de nos souvenirs, c'est-à-dire, les émotions et les sentiments en rapport avec nos expériences passées. Dans ces deux derniers chapitres, j'analyse les différentes interactions qui peuvent avoir lieu entre les souvenirs et les émotions et défends l'idée qu'il y a des souvenirs avec un aspect émotionnel qui ne peut être réduit ni à un souvenir propositionnel ni à une émotion présenteThis thesis is intended to analyse a mental phenomenon widely neglected in current philosophical discussions: personal memories. Although the analysis is philosophical, the methodological approach is interdisciplinary in order to integrate empirical research done in cognitive science. The first part presents a general framework to better understand what personal memories are, how we access our personal past and what we access about our personal past. Chapter 1 introduces traditional theories of memory: direct realism and representationalism in their differen versions, as well as some objections. I defend here a particular form of representationalism that is based on the distinction between content, intentional object and ontological object. Chapter 2 explores the possible contents of our personal memories, which prove to be heterogenous, even embodied and external, whereas chapter 3 analyses their possible intentional objects, with a special focus on past events. The second part of the thesis explores an aspect of our personal memories that was omitted in the first part: the senses in which our personal past is apprehended as personal. Chapter 4 examines the way in which the "self" intervenes in the construction of our personal memories anc determines their content. Chapters 5 and 6 focus on the analysis of what seems to be the most subjective aspect of our memories, that is, the emotions and feelings of our past experiences. In these last two chapters, I analyse the different interactions that can take place between memories and emotions and defend the idea that there can be memories with an emotional aspect that is not reducible neither to a propositional memory nor an occurrent and present emotion

Abstract:
Memories of the past are a powerful part of human existence. The pastremembered affects who we are as a person as well as the decisions we make in our lives. As we grow older and time passes these memories begin to fade. Specific details about events in the past become fuzzy or are gone all together. We may still remember what occurred and the emotions felt as it happened but exact records of the events begin to be lost. Is it possible to visually represent personal memories and the coinciding emotions in a way that can convey the said emotions to a viewer? How much of the human experience is common? Can a personal experience and emotion be depicted in a way that is universal and shared by all?Department of Art

Merrill, Mark Reed. "Where We Belong: A Memoir." PDXScholar, 2012. https://pdxscholar.library.pdx.edu/open_access_etds/393.
Abstract:
Where We Belong is more than a memoir. It is a love story about the untimely death of the oldest of five daughters born to a prominent New Haven, Connecticut family. It is also a tale of hubris, rage and frustration, a Greek tragedy about a man's life as re-examined through the lens of the two weeks his wife spent dying, a tale in which chronic illness and good intentions ensure the death of a loving wife, artist and mother. The journey on which her husband takes the reader explores a health care system oblivious to her plight, her family's unwitting complicity and a 12-step mythology that unfolds while he, her six weeping children and her aging mother helplessly look on. The author endures an agony that dwarfs incentives to lie, learning that people lie out of fear, and genuine grief supplants fear with the stark reality of what we fear most: death. Where We Belong gives voice to the internal dialogue the author encounters when reexamining not just memories, but the accoutrements of memory, as well. It is a voice that addresses his own grandiosity, sentimentalism and self-pity in the face of his wife's death, in addition to those details, circumstances and impressions that speak to the arrogance he brought to the task of being all he thought she and her six children needed him to be. He concludes the task was well beyond him, a realization evoked by the gut wrenching decision to literally "pull the plug" on this heartbreaking tale of reconstituted hope and great promise reduced to rubble by chronic illness, alcoholism, drug addiction and death. Born is the lesson that when we grieve, we are free to be ourselves. When we are free to be ourselves, we are free to love again.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 126-132).
The prevalence and affordability of personal and environmental recording apparatuses are leading to increased documentation of our daily lives. This trend is bound to continue and it follows that academic, industry, and government groups are showing an increased interest in such endeavors for various purposes. In the present case, I assert that such documentation can be used to help remedy common memory problems. Assuming a long-term personal archive exists, when confronted with a memory problem, one faces a new challenge, that of finding relevant memory triggers. This dissertation examines the use of information-retrieval technologies on long-term archives of personal experiences towards remedying certain types of long-term forgetting. The approach focuses on capturing audio for the content. Research on Spoken Document Retrieval examines the pitfalls of information-retrieval techniques on error-prone speech- recognizer-generated transcripts and these challenges carry over to the present task. However, "memory retrieval" can benefit from the person's familiarity of the recorded data and the context in which it was recorded to help guide their effort. To study this, I constructed memory-retrieval tools designed to leverage a person's familiarity of their past to optimize their search task. To evaluate the utility of these towards solving long-term memory problems, I (1) recorded public events and evaluated witnesses' memory-retrieval approaches using these tools; and (2) conducted a longer- term memory-retrieval study based on recordings of several years of my personal and research-related conversations. Subjects succeeded with memory-retrieval tasks in both studies, typically finding answers within minutes.
(cont.) This is far less time than the alternate of re-listening to hours of recordings. Subjects' memories of the past events, in particular their ability to narrow the window of time in which past events occurred, improved their ability to find answers. In addition to results from the memory-retrieval studies, I present a technique called "speed listening." By using a transcript (even one with many errors), it allows people to reduce listening time while maintaining comprehension. Finally, I report on my experiences recording events in my life over 2.5 years.

Abstract:
The discussion in this report considers the framework to my research, my developing methodology and an evaluating synopsis of my professional practice as an artist during my doctorate period. My painting research is approached in the following ways: First is the use of line, as an expressive and visual medium, that is distinct in my work. When I come to the need for pictorial representation, line is perhaps the visual element with the most extensive use in my practice. Second is the development of mapping, viewed as a grid of drawn lines and the use of cartographical language in the drawing practice. Third is the deconstruction of the map towards an imaginary mapped place. Fourth is the concept of the thread in relation to my early memories as child of a seamstress. Thread visually represented by line is influential in my recent art practice. Fifth is doodling and its role into my painting practice. The sixth element is the composition of images that create visual juxtapositions. This is a painting practice that most of the time is an issue of my artistic research. Finally there is my collaboration with other artists and in particular with Group Capsule, my professional practice and the experience I have received participating in a number of exhibitions, art projects, residencies and in teaching. These issues have been at the core of my debate over the past five years and they have played a crucial role in my visual development. It is these issues that I have explored in the context of autobiographical as well as socio cultural references. My current research has been to exploring the processes that give the artist's mark it's meaning in particular the development of the visual reading of cartography. My recent research is a logical extension of ten years interest in image making, particularly exploring the use of line as a way of expression. The changes in my current body of work are developments of my earlier practice. During my practice as a painter deconstruction has been one of the crucial issues. I have a great commitment to drawing and throughout the last ten years the images I have created come from a deconstruction of the outline of form (human figure, a complex of geometric shapes, the organic form of a map, the satellite picture of a city etc). (illustration 30) This is an ongoing process of reworking and redrawing the silhouette of the initial stimulus. I believe that such deconstruction requires an understanding of the original constructed form. Hence drawing has always been vital to and an integral part of my painting practice. I am sometimes asked, "What is your objective? " and this I cannot truthfully answer. I work "from" something rather than "towards" something. It is a process of discovery and I will not impose a convenient dogma, however attractive.

Abstract:
Mon projet s’articule autour d’une enquête sur les caractéristiques originales de l’écriture autobiographique de Niccolò Tommaseo. Je me suis concentré sur l’étude approfondie du texte qu'il est convenu d'appeler le Diario Intimo dans le but de préparer également une nouvelle édition de ce journal, actuellement disponible seulement dans une édition, qui n’est pas totalement fiable sur le plan philologique, de Raffaele Ciampini, publiée au milieu du siècle dernier, et dont les limites ont déjà été mises en évidence par d’autres études. Non seulement ce travail permettra d’avoir à disposition une édition mise à jour et complète de cette œuvre “privée” également utile en termes de comparaison avec d’autres écritures autobiographiques tommaseiennes en prose et en vers, mais il aidera à tracer de manière plus précise le profil de l’un des auteurs les plus significatifs de la littérature italienne du dix-neuvième siècleRaffaele Ciampini published, in 1938, the first edition of the Diario intimo, the private memories that Niccolò Tommaseo compiled almost daily during his whole life since 1824. In this doctoral thesis we wanted to offer a new edition of those memories, enriching the comment and amending the transcription mistakes made by Ciampini. The thesis is supplemented by a copious introduction, in which we offer a synthesis of the critic literature about the autobiographical genre, its origins, and specific peculiarities of the tommasean work, mostly as concerns the other two memorial pieces of the dalmatian, Memorie poetiche and Memorie politiche

Taffa, Deborah. "Against a divided land: a memoir in personal essays." Thesis, University of Iowa, 2013. http://ir.uiowa.edu/etd/1771.
Abstract:
Against a Divided Land is a tale of escape from the poverty of the Yuma Indian reservation, the flight of a young girl and her family into modern American in the 1970's. The stories in the collection emerge via the narrator: a forty-year-old woman exploring landscape and memory. Her recollections as a mother and international traveler, juxtaposed alongside her childhood on the reservation, reveal the unique concerns of Native Americans in the era of government relocation and displacement. The stories in this collection paint a picture of United States subculture rarely seen. The accounts link the narrator to the past in surprising ways as they push forth with a modern voice, imagining a brighter future: a future filled with both loss and beauty. From Africa to the Southwest, the characters in these essays seek relationships across typical boundaries.

Abstract:
While Sheridan’s memoirs have not enjoyed the popularity of those written by Grant and William T. Sherman, Cushman argues that they revealed considerable literary merit offering readers “richly textured glimpses of moments and subjects that have no counterparts in Grant’s and Sherman’s accounts.” Equally important, Cushman considers Sheridan’s stylistic choices and highlights the striking ways the general’s leadership style shone through his prose. A close examination of the memoirs exposes Sheridan’s frank self-justification, critiques of his fellow officers, self-censorship, and firm but constant vigilance for the welfare of his men. Indeed, this window into Sheridan’s personality helps explain his choices during the Appomattox Campaign.

Abstract:
The article examines the historical and literary significance of the memoirs of a Baltic German about Latgale. The space between Ilukste and Daugavpils has been little studied. The data about individual estates and their owners is fragmentary. The study is a separate part of a large regional and literary study dedicated to the Baltic Germans living in the territory of Latgale and in Daugavpils region. The aims of the study are to establish a connection between the text of the book and geographical and personal realities, as well as to reveal the relationship of the Baltic Germans with the population of Latgale from a perspective of self-reflection. Understanding “myself” in the eyes of others and “others” in one’s personal perception is getting more relevant as studying these interactions on the basis of literary texts opens for understanding of the current processes in modern society. The specific tasks are to promote a national issue on the material of the given text as well as to determine a link between the memoir text and the jokes of the Baltic Germans (Pratchen), the features of which have been defined in the authorized studies. The text is understood as an object of scientific cognition in which there are no random linguistic or substantive units. The methodology of research is based on the interpretation of a literary text as well as the synthesis of statistical analysis, immanent critique and content analysis. In the course of the study, it was possible to establish a structural and substantive link between individual episodes of the book with the Baltics jokes (Pratchen). For the peoples who inhabited Latgale (southeastern part of Latvia) in the 18th and 19th centuries, the national issue was not decisive, especially among rural people. Difference in perception of oneself and “myself” in the eyes of others was determined by different social status: Germans are the landowners, the rest are servants and badgers. The mental character of the Baltic Germans was shaped, first and foremost, by the family upbringing and education level, commonly university. The key values were love for their native land, pride for their ancestors, honor and service to the state, and faithfulness to the word. On the basis of the life realia described in the book, it is possible to reconstruct the way of life of the people who disappeared from the map of modern Latgale. The research is funded by the Latvian Council of Science, project “The Baltic Germans of Latgale in the context of socio-ethnic relations from the 17th till the beginning of the 20th century” project No. lzp-2020/2-0136.

"Introspecciones sobre el proceso, producción, construcción y reconstrucción de nuevos espacios de identificación urbana, a través de la memoria, vivencias y experiencias de sus habitantes: el caso del barrio de San Juan de Dios en la ciudad de Guadalajara, Jalisco, México." In International Conference Virtual City and Territory. Roma: Centre de Política de Sòl i Valoracions, 2014. http://dx.doi.org/10.5821/ctv.7994.
Abstract:
En el entendido de que el espacio urbano se convierte en lugar, lugar de vivencias, y por
consiguiente, en un lugar que contiene un conjunto de significados, simbólicos y cognoscitivos
en el que se establecen lugares de identidad. De esta forma, el espacio urbano – ente hacedor
de cultura –, se constituye a través de un continuo proceso y reorganización de significados y
una constante construcción de nuevos como parte de las formas de identificación de una
sociedad determinada.
En este espacio de reflexión, se expone una visión puntualizada sobre la estructura socioespacial
de un barrio histórico-tradicional en el corazón de la ciudad de Guadalajara, México,
en el área conocida como San Juan de Dios, con la finalidad de poner en evidencia el continuo
proceso de transformación al que ha estado sujeto, en donde se evidencian las diferencias
sociales y significados que se ha producido y producen actualmente sobre éste. Todo ello
establecido a través de mapas sociales y la contrastación de éstos con las historias de vida,
memorias y narraciones personales obtenidas por parte de sus habitantes, como parte de la
reconstrucción de una historia y un pasado reciente que intentamos descifrar.
A través de estas historias, se logró tener una imagen simplificada de una realidad particular
del barrio, que dan forma a un conjunto de circunstancias o escenarios que reflejan el proceso
urbano y entorno social – expresado en un pequeño fragmento de la ciudad –, como parte de
los diferentes significados que articulan y producen el paisaje y el territorio urbano
contemporáneo. On the understanding that urban space it becomes place, place experience, and consequently,
in a place that contains a set of meanings and cognitive symbolic in establishing identity sites.
Thus, the urban space - being a maker of culture - is constituted through a continuous process
and reorganization of meanings and constantly building new forms part of identification of a
particular society. In this space of reflection, punctuated we provide an overview on socio-spatial structure of a
traditional historical section in the heart of the city of Guadalajara, Mexico, in the area known as
San Juan de Dios, in order to put in evidenced by the continuous process of transformation that
has been subject, where social differences are evident and meanings that has occurred and
currently produce over it. This established through the social mapping and contrasting these
with the life stories, memoirs and personal narratives obtained by its inhabitants, as part of the
reconstruction of a history and the recent past we tried to decipher.
Through these stories, we were able to have a simplified representation of a particular reality of
the neighborhood, that shape a set of circumstances or scenarios that reflect the urban process
and social environment - expressed in a small fragment of the city - as part the different
meanings that articulate and produce landscape and contemporary urban territory.

Abstract:
În romanul interbelic modalitățile de caracterizare psihologică a personajului au dobândit funcții noi care ajută cititorul să cunoască natura adâncă, originară a ființei stratificate a personajului și a devenirii personalităţii lui. Analiza introspectivă, tehnica punctului de vedere, jurnalul intim, visul sau reveria, confesiunea, monologul interior, fluxul conştiinţei şi memoria involuntară sunt tehnici narativ-artistice folosite pentru instituirea unui alt fel de personaj, în continuă interacţiune cu sine sau cu alte personaje. Acestea contribuie la reliefarea adâncurilor conştiinţei, pentru a-i oferi cititorului imagini artistice mai complexe ale omului complet și viu, realizate prin structuri verbale speciale şi compoziţii stilistice adecvate funcţiei lor caracterologice.

Abstract:
The subject of the study is the cooperation of S. Efremov with Western Ukrainian periodicals as a page in the history of Ukrainian journalism which covers the relationship of journalists and scientists of Eastern and Western Ukraine at the turn of the XIX-XX centuries. Research methods (biographical, historical, comparative, axiological, statistical, discursive) develop the comprehensive disclosure of the article. As a result of scientific research, the origins of Ukrainocentrism in the personality of S. Efremov were clarified; his person as a public figure, journalist, publisher, literary critic is multifaceted; taking into account the specifics of the memoir genre and with the involvement of the historical context, the turning points in the destiny of the author of memoirs are interpreted, revealing cooperation with Western Ukrainian magazines and newspapers. The publications ‘Zoria’, ‘Narod’, ‘Pravda’, ‘Bukovyna’, ‘Dzvinok’, are secretly got into sub-Russian Ukraine, became for S. Efremov a spiritual basis in understanding the specifics of the national (Ukrainian) mass media, ideas of education in culture of Ukraine at the end of XIX century, its territorial integrity, and state independence. Memoirs of S. Efremov on cooperation with the iconic Galician journals ‘Notes of the Scientific Society after the name Shevchenko’ and ‘Literary-Scientific Bulletin’, testify to an important stage in the formation of the author’s worldview, the expansion of the genre boundaries of his journalism, active development as a literary critic. S. Yefremov collaborated most fruitfully and for a long time with the Literary-Scientific Bulletin, and he was impressed by the democratic position of this publication. The author’s comments reveal a long-running controversy over the publication of a review of the new edition of Kobzar and thematically related discussions around his other literary criticism, in which the talent of the demanding critic was forged. S. Efremov steadfastly defended the main principles of literary criticism: objectivity and freedom of author’s thought. The names of the allies of the Ukrainian idea L. Skochkovskyi, O. Lototskyi, O. Konyskyi, P. Zhytskyi, M. Hrushevskyi in S. Efremov’s memoirs unfold in multifaceted portrait descriptions and function as historical and cultural facts that document the pages of the author’s biography, record his activities in space and time. The results of the study give grounds to characterize S. Efremov as the first professional Ukrainian-speaking journalist.

Tosold, Léa. The Quilombo as a Regime of Conviviality Sentipensando Memory Politics with Beatriz Nascimento. Maria Sibylla Merian International Centre for Advanced Studies in the Humanities and Social Sciences Conviviality-Inequality in Latin America, December 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.46877/tosold.2021.41.
Abstract:
Aiming at (re)thinking memory politics in contexts of ongoing total violence against non-white bodies, I propose, in this working paper, to engage with Maria Beatriz Nascimento’s multifaceted notion of quilombo. Once understood as alternative regimes of conviviality that entail existential (beyond material) aspects, Nascimento’s notion of quilombo enables critical access to the onto-epistemological basis on which memory politics generally takes place. After primary considerations about violence and the archives, I highlight three main aspects of Nascimento’s notion of quilombo to (re) think memory politics: (1) the introduction of a temporality that displaces underlying analytical assumptions of a linear, progressive and sequential time; (2) the idea of paz quilombola, which allows analytical space for “opacity” in the generation of knowledge; (3) the link between personal and collective intergenerational memory that, for Nascimento, requires the fostering of spaces of body encounters.

Abstract:
This article presents the findings of a small oral history project carried out during the years 2001-2010 in the Eastern Ukrainian Donbass region. We learn from the interviews that loyalties were rather fragile and changed quite frequently during the war. The sharp lines of definition and categorisation which historians have created in dealing with the past do not fit wartime reality. Many people collaborated at one time and participated in Soviet resistance or fought in the Red Army at another. There were no clear lines between collaboration and resistance, but rather moral grey zones. Experiences of the occupation were diverse, and besides, experiences of terror and violence also included cultural and working experiences as well as various personal relationships with the German enemy. Therefore the authors argue for much more integrated research approaches trying to combine the wide range of different wartime experiences.

Cox, Jeremy. The unheard voice and the unseen shadow. Norges Musikkhøgskole, August 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.22501/nmh-ar.621671.
Abstract:
The French composer Francis Poulenc had a profound admiration and empathy for the writings of the Spanish poet Federico García Lorca. That empathy was rooted in shared aspects of the artistic temperament of the two figures but was also undoubtedly reinforced by Poulenc’s fellow-feeling on a human level. As someone who wrestled with his own homosexuality and who kept his orientation and his relationships apart from his public persona, Poulenc would have felt an instinctive affinity for a figure who endured similar internal conflicts but who, especially in his later life and poetry, was more open about his sexuality. Lorca paid a heavy price for this refusal to dissimulate; his arrest in August 1936 and his assassination the following day, probably by Nationalist militia, was accompanied by taunts from his killers about his sexuality. Everything about the Spanish poet’s life, his artistic affinities, his personal predilections and even the relationship between these and his death made him someone to whom Poulenc would be naturally drawn and whose untimely demise he would feel keenly and might wish to commemorate musically. Starting with the death of both his parents while he was still in his teens, reinforced by the sudden loss in 1930 of an especially close friend, confidante and kindred spirit, and continuing throughout the remainder of his life with the periodic loss of close friends, companions and fellow-artists, Poulenc’s life was marked by a succession of bereavements. Significantly, many of the dedications that head up his compositions are ‘to the memory of’ the individual named. As Poulenc grew older, and the list of those whom he had outlived lengthened inexorably, his natural tendency towards the nostalgic and the elegiac fused with a growing sense of what might be termed a ‘survivor’s anguish’, part of which he sublimated into his musical works. It should therefore come as no surprise that, during the 1940s, and in fulfilment of a desire that he had felt since the poet’s death, he should turn to Lorca for inspiration and, in the process, attempt his own act of homage in two separate works: the Violin Sonata and the ‘Trois Chansons de Federico García Lorca’. This exposition attempts to unfold aspects of the two men’s aesthetic pre-occupations and to show how the parallels uncovered cast reciprocal light upon their respective approaches to the creative process. It also examines the network of enfolded associations, musical and autobiographical, which link Poulenc’s two compositions commemorating Lorca, not only to one another but also to a wider circle of the composer’s works, especially his cycle setting poems of Guillaume Apollinaire: ‘Calligrammes’. Composed a year after the ‘Trois Chansons de Federico García Lorca’, this intricately wrought collection of seven mélodies, which Poulenc saw as the culmination of an intensive phase in his activity in this genre, revisits some of ‘unheard voices’ and ‘unseen shadows’ enfolded in its predecessor. It may be viewed, in part, as an attempt to bring to fuller resolution the veiled but keenly-felt anguish invoked by these paradoxical properties.

Великодна, Мар’яна Сергіївна. Psychoanalytic Study on Psychological Features of Young Men «Millionaires» in Modern Provincial Ukraine. Theory and Practice of Modern Psychology, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.31812/123456789/3873.
Abstract:
The article is based on three cases of private psychoanalytic work with successful businessmen from central and northern parts of Ukraine. The research methodology was psychoanalytic theories devoted to the unconscious meanings of money and the role of money in the psychoanalytic setting, including object theory, drive theory, psychosexual development theory, narcissism theory, Oedipus complex, transference and resistance. What presents the interest of this study are the cases when those who grew up in poverty finally obtains such a desired object — money, wealth, however, something unconscious hinders this person to get satisfied by it and even to admit obtaining it. The presented clinical work was conducted as classic psychoanalysis in person with different duration: 5, 10 and 46 months. Men were asked to tell whatever comes to mind: thoughts, memories, dreams, phantasies, feelings etc. The role of psychoanalyst was to hear specific connections between patient’s stories and to analyze them together with the patient. The cases presented highlight several psychological features of young men «millionaires» who suffer from their own success. 1. Sensitivity to Father’s (real or symbolic) acceptance of their business and financial success. 2. Activation of unconscious Oedipus complex and Complex of castration because of the risk to dethrone the Father in reality, with experiences of guilt, fear and expectation of punishment. 3. Projection of their own envy, hate, wish to avenge and killing phantasies into external objects (friends, partners, psychoanalyst) with building individual defensive strategies from them. These psychological features were associated not only with suffering and psychopathological symptoms but also with impossibility to continue business development. In addition, the cases analyzed in the article show some difficulties in building business connected with the generations gap. Fathers from the USSR or the 90s teach their sons to act in the way that is not relevant for successful careers nowadays. This latent or manifested struggle between generations may be an important factor in abovementioned psychological features.

Memorias sobre ciclo de foros de víctimas pertenecientes a las Fuerzas Militares, a la Policía Nacional y sus familias durante el conflicto armado en Colombia. Universidad Militar Nueva Granada, May 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.18359/docinst.6265.
Abstract:
En el marco del compromiso de la Universidad Militar Nueva Granada con el país y la formación de ciudadanos íntegros que contribuyan de manera positiva a la sociedad, el Instituto de Estudios Geoestratégicos y Asuntos Políticos (IEGAP), en cabeza de su Director, Señor MG ® Gustavo Adolfo Ocampo Nahar, creó un espacio de escucha que sirvió como escenario para resaltar los testimonios de las víctimas del conflicto armado pertenecientes a las Fuerzas Militares, a la Policía Nacional y sus familias. Durante tres días se desarrolló de manera virtual, por medio del canal de YouTube del Aula Máxima de nuestra Universidad, un ciclo de foros en el que se contó con la participación de delegados de diferentes entidades nacionales y víctimas de distintos hechos victimizantes. En el primer foro se trató el secuestro, el desplazamiento y la desaparición forzada; en el segundo se hizo referencia a las masacres contra integrantes de la Fuerza Pública, y en el tercero se contempló lo concerniente a homicidios, minas antipersonales (MAP) y ataques indiscriminados. Estos espacios de escucha, valiosos para la construcción de la memoria histórica de nuestro país, se enfocaron en realizar aportes significativos a la Comisión para el Esclarecimiento de la Verdad, la Convivencia y la No Repetición (Comisión de la Verdad), en el proceso de reconocimiento de los miembros de las Fuerzas Militares y Policía Nacional como víctimas ante los mecanismos del Sistema Integral de Verdad, Justicia, Reparación y No Repetición, visibilizando sus relatos, los cuales se han contemplado de manera diferencial, porque se ha desconocido en muchos escenarios, que antes de su condición de miembros de la Fuerza Pública, son ciudadanos y han sufrido igual que el resto de los colombianos, los rigores de la violencia. La relación histórica de la Universidad Militar con el Sector Defensa ha permitido la creación de lazos que se fortalecen por medio de la academia y la búsqueda continua de espacios que aporten, desde todos los sectores de la sociedad, a una paz estable, duradera y en la cual estén en el centro las víctimas, sin discriminación alguna. El periodo de transición al que se enfrenta el país tras el proceso de negociación y firma del Acuerdo de Paz, derivó en la creación y puesta en marcha de un marco normativo bajo la sombrilla del Sistema Integral de Verdad, Justicia, Reparación y No Repetición, con instituciones como la Comisión de la Verdad, la Jurisdicción Especial para la Paz (JEP) y la Unidad de búsqueda de personas dadas por desaparecidas (UBPD) en el contexto y en razón del conflicto armado, cruciales para la transformación de la sociedad y la dignificación de las víctimas; la construcción de la verdad histórica ha supuesto también el fortalecimiento de entidades como el Centro Nacional de Memoria Histórica, para la recuperación y conservación de los relatos de los colombianos que han vivido de manera directa el conflicto. Es por lo anterior que el IEGAP contó con representantes y delegados de estas Instituciones, que durante todo el ciclo de conferencias contextualizaron a los asistentes sobre la importancia de este proceso de transición y escucharon los testimonios de las víctimas, visibilizando así la importancia de incluir a todos los sectores de la sociedad en la reconstrucción de los hechos que han marcado la historia de nuestro país.
