This edited collection provides an inter- and intra-disciplinary discussion of the critical role context plays in how and when individuals and groups remember the past. International contributors integrate key research from a range of disciplines, including social and cognitive psychology, discursive psychology, philosophy/philosophical psychology and cognitive linguistics, to increase awareness of the central role that cultural, social and technological contexts play in determining individual and collective recollections at multiple, yet interconnected, levels of human experience.

Divided into three parts, cognitive and psychological perspectives, social and cultural perspectives, and cognitive linguistics and philosophical perspectives, Stone and Bietti present a breadth of research on memory in context. Topics covered include:

the construction of self-identity in memory

flashbulb memories

scaffolding memory

the cultural psychology of remembering

social aspects of memory

the mnemonic consequences of silence

emotion and memory

eyewitness identification

multimodal communication and collective remembering.

Contextualizing Human Memory allows researchers to understand the variety of work undertaken in related fields, and to appreciate the importance of context in understanding when, how and what is remembered at any given recollection. The book will appeal to researchers, academics and postgraduate students in the fields of cognitive and social psychology, as well as those in related disciplines interested in learning more about the advancing field of memory studies.

Charles B. Stone is Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, The City University of New York, USA. Lucas M. Bietti is a Marie Curie Research Fellow in the Department of Economics, Management and Social Sciences at Telecom ParisTech, France.
