Memory Studies is an interdisciplinary field that explores how memory works, how it is formed, and how it influences our understanding of the past. Researchers examine various types of memory, including short-term memory, long-term memory, and working memory, using methods from psychology, neuroscience, and cultural studies. This field also investigates the social and cultural aspects of memory, such as how collective memories shape group identities and historical narratives. Scholars may analyze memorials, literature, and media to understand how memories are constructed and preserved in society, highlighting the relationship between memory and identity.
