Produktinformationen zu „King Returns to Washington / Palgrave Studies in Cultural Heritage and Conflict (PDF)“
Exploring the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. National Memorial (King Memorial) in Washington, DC through a multi-faceted rhetorical analysis of the site's visual and textual components, Jefferson Walker reveals multiple critical, popular, privileged, and vernacular interpretations of the site and Dr. Martin Luther King's memory. Walker argues that the King Memorial and its related texts help to universalize and institutionalize King's ethos - creating a contentious rhetorical battleground where various people and organizations contest the "ownership" and use of King's memory. Walker uses these analyses to uncover how the site contributes to the public memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Pressezitat
“King Returns to Washington, Jefferson Walker brings new energy and a fresh perspective to both the disciplinary study of the rhetoric of public memory and the broader study of the legacy of the civil rights era. King Returns to Washington offers a compact yet detailed account of the 27-year-long process from inception to dedication of the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in Washington, D.C. in 2011.” (Jennifer Biedendorf, Rhetoric & Public Affairs, Vol. 21 (4), 2018)
