Rethinking Historical Time
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-19622-3 (ISBN)
Marek Tamm and Laurent Olivier have brought together an international team of scholars working in history, anthropology, archaeology, geography, philosophy, literature and visual studies to rethink the epistemological consequences of presentism for the study of past and to discuss critically the traditional assumptions that underpin research on historical time. Beginning with an analysis of presentism, the contributors move on to explore in historical and critical terms the idea of multiple temporalities, before presenting a series of case studies on the variability of different forms of time in contemporary material culture.
Marek Tamm is Professor of Cultural History and Head of the Centre of Excellence in Intercultural Studies at Tallinn University, Estonia. His primary research fields are cultural history of medieval Europe, theory and history of historiography, and cultural memory studies. He has recently published Rethinking Historical Time: New Approaches to Presentism (ed. with Laurent Olivier, Bloomsbury 2019), Juri Lotman – Culture, Memory and History: Essays in Cultural Semiotics (2019), Debating New Approaches to History (ed. with Peter Burke, Bloomsbury 2018), Afterlife of Events: Perspectives on Mnemohistory (2015), and a companion to the Chronicle of Henry of Livonia, Crusading and Chronicle Writing on the Medieval Baltic Frontier (ed. with Linda Kaljundi and Carsten Selch Jensen, Ashgate 2011). He is also the co-editor of A Cultural History of Memory in the Early Modern Age (ed. with Alessandro Arcangeli, Bloomsbury 2020). Laurent Olivier is Curator in Chief of the Celtic and Gallic Department at the French National Museum of Archaeology in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France. His main area of research is the archaeology of the European Iron Age, but he is also interested in the history of the archaeological discipline and its place in the building of collective identities. He is the author of The Dark Abyss of Time: Archaeology and Memory (2015).
