- Memory and Enlightenment is a 250-page monograph contributing to the interdisciplinary field of memory studies. Its seven chapters investigate two significant bodies of primary material. Works and events from the period 1660-1800 are interpreted through modern ‘memory texts’, produced between 1980 and the time of publication. Originating from Britain, Ireland, North America and Australia, primary materials include a wide span of genres and media: poetry, novels, stage and radio drama, television and film, visual art. Within the overarching context of memory studies, the book employs a range of disciplinary frameworks and methodologies, including eighteenth-century studies, intellectual history and adaptation studies.
