Description

The lens of life stories allows us to identify contested memories and counter-narratives, thus offering new ways of interpreting the social dynamics that led to acts of genocidal violence and their remembrance, yet also to their denial.  Lives in Fragments focuses on life stories that were fragmented and shattered through the historical violence of the Armenian genocide, and offers a nuanced understanding of genocide’s complex historical and social dimensions. Diverse autobiographical sources become subject of analysis in chapters that investigate the historiography and remembrance of the Armenian genocide.

Eren Yıldırım Yetkin is based at the Catholic University of Applied Sciences Berlin (KHSB).

Nazan Maksudyan is a Senior Researcher at the Centre Marc Bloch in Berlin and a Visiting Professor at the Freie Universität Berlin.

Adnan Çelik is Associate Professor at the École des hautes études en sciences sociales (EHESS) in Paris.
