33The Role of Memory in the Historiography of the French RevolutionHistory and Theory 30 (1): 56-69. 1991.The works of three well-remembered French historians- Jules Michelet, Alphonse Aulard, and François Furet - raise the issue of memory's relationship to history, but each treats it in a different way. History for Michelet concerned the sustaining of tradition. His conceptions of the past grew directly out of a living tradition, from which he established comparatively little distance. For Aulard, history meant consecrating its events in the guise of science. History for Furet demanded the deconstr…Read more

175The History of Mentalities: The New Map of Cultural HistoryHistory and Theory 20 (3): 237-259. 1981.The "history of mentalities" considers the attitudes of ordinary people to everyday life.

11How the old left has found a new place in the memory game (review)History and Theory 50 (1): 98-111. 2011.In his new book, How Modernity Forgets, Paul Connerton seeks to show a relationship between the workings of late capitalism and the institutionalization of forgetfulness in ever more abstract conceptions of space and time. He uses this argument to explain why the topic of collective memory has waxed so large in contemporary historical scholarship. I interpret his argument in light of his earlier work on habit memory and his still earlier critique of Frankfurt School social theory. I close with s…Read more
