Passing by Layers of Memory

Abstract

The paper discusses the dimensions, genres and mediality of collective memory in Mariusz Wilk's reportage on the Solovetsky Islands. As the authoress argues, on the one hand, his reports reflect a broad variety of different media, where the text itself also appears as a medium of memory. On the other hand, Wilk draws attention to the sites of memory on the Solovetsky Islands. For those, different concepts from memory studies help deepen our understanding of both the layers of memory on the islands and of those in Wilk's text.
