标题:Ways of Narrating Memory: Hannah Arendt’s "Eichmann in Jerusalem" and Steven Spielberg’s "Schindler’s List" / Formas de narração da memória: “Eichmann em Israel”, de Hannah Arendt e “A Lista de Schindler”, de Steven Spielberg
摘要:It is self-evident that events of the past are bound to places and acting people, they are playing a decisive role for memory and history.Meaning and importance of places and actions in the past depend on their contexts and each change inevitably also changes the meaning of the events itself.I would like to demonstrate some of the consequences of such a change by comparing Hannah Arendt’s “Eichmann in Jerusalem“ with Steven Spielberg’s “Schindler’s List“ who decontextualized a factual story and thus changed places and acting people.But before doing this, I would like to emphasize the importance which places and acting people play for memory and history with some perhaps unusual remarks.They refer to the official European history and politics which seem to be marked by the absence of places and acting people.
