| Summary / Abstract (Note) | In this essay I look first at some general problems of memory and of how events are retold from memory. Then I focus on memory of June fourth and divide the question by asking how three categories of people - perpetrators, victim, and bystanders have remembered, failed to remember, or tried to alter memory. The tripartite division of "perpetrators, victims, and bystanders" is not perfect but I find it illuminating. Nearly all the questions that come up have moral implications, so I call the essay" memory and ethics". I draw upon examples form illiterate, memoir journalism, film and personal acquaintance. |
