Book Title: Places of Public Memory: The Rhetoric of Museums and Memorials

Author: Greg Dickinson, Carole Blair, and Brian L. Ott

Selection Statement:

Places of Public Memory has been immensely helpful in both my research on public memory and my teaching and mentorship of undergraduate students. Their collection of essays greatly influenced my own book project on public memory in Outlander, and their succinct description of the assumptions of public memory has helped me teach the construct to students, many of whom have used it in their own conference paper research.
