Zumkehr Projects

The Zumkehr Projects highlight and support scholarship into the rhetorical dimensions of public memory as we collectively remember (and argue) about the past. On this site, you will find a growing body of resources—including lectures from the world’s top scholars in public memory—that demonstrate, as William Faulkner famously said, the past “is never dead. It’s not even past.”
