Migration is most concretely defined by the movement of human bodies, but it leaves indelible traces on everything from individual psychology to major social movements. Drawing on extensive field research, and with a special focus on Italy and the Netherlands, this interdisciplinary volume explores the interrelationship of migration and memory at scales both large and small, ranging across topics that include oral and visual forms of memory, archives, and artistic innovations. By engaging with the complex tensions between roots and routes, minds and bodies, The Mobility of Memory offers an incisive and empirically grounded perspective on a social phenomenon that continues to reshape both Europe and the world.
Gabriele Proglio is Associate Professor of Cultural History at the University of Gastronomic Sciences, in Pollenzo, Italy and former Research Assistant with the European Research Project "Bodies across Borders: Oral and Visual Memory in Europe and Beyond."
