From the publisher:

One of the most promising, actively demanded and popular fields of contemporary socio-humanitarian knowledge is the study of memory - social and national, historical and cultural, collective, family, individual, etc. One of the most interesting works by the famous German researcher Alyda Assmann is devoted to the study of cultural memory. By cultural memory, the author means a set of texts, images, and rituals inherent in every society and every era, through which a certain group of people stabilises and transmits their own vision of themselves, this collective knowledge of the past. The book consists of three parts, the first of which is devoted to the functions, the second to the means, and the third to the carriers of cultural memory.

The book is intended for students and teachers of humanities, as well as for anyone interested in philosophy, history, cultural studies, and literary history. Translated into Ukrainian for the first time.
