Book Synopsis Realms of Memory by : Pierre Nora
Book excerpt: The third and final volume in Pierre Nora's award-winning (for Volume I) REALMS OF MEMORY, which includes groundbreaking discussions of France's past, powerfully demonstrates how a nation can both recover and rediscover its identity through remembrance, how rewriting history can forge new paradigms of cultural identity, and how meanings attached to an event can be as significant as the event itself. 146 illustrations.
