Funded Activity Summary

Memory and Identity in England 1500-1700. This project will test the hypothesis that struggles to control memory were central to the redefinition of beliefs, collective identities and social structures in England, 1500 to 1700. It will focus analysis on three ways of remembering, expressed in written, visual and material media: genealogy, local history, and commemoration of the dead. The project's hypothesis and interdisciplinary method represent significant new departures in understanding the construction of identity and the pursuit of power. By studying a premodern society, this project will add depth to recent studies of memory, and open up new ways of imagining of early modern England.
