“How do we learn about a historical event and how do we remember about it?” It is a quote from the book “The Long Shadow of the Past” by A. Assman. The leading theorist of memorial culture formulates an important question — how do people recognize and preserve the memory of past events? The media outlines daily events that later become history. Textbooks and books are no longer the only source of knowledge about the past.
