abstract

The Nazi Party launched a series of ambitious building programs soon after seizing power intended to achieve a comprehensive spatial reorganization of Germany. As part of these expansive building programs, the regime invested considerable time, effort, and resources in creating an archipelago of places of memory substantiating Nazi ideology and power. This commemorative topography stitched together a profusion of places and spaces into a totalitarian liturgy that glorified notions of struggle and sacrifice on behalf of Hitler and his movement. This article investigates how this topography of Nazi memory worked to translate intangible ideologies into tangible places and experiences, and in doing so, highlights the mutable and multifaceted relationships between places of memory, historic preservation, and place attachment.

摘要

纳粹党在夺取政权后不久就启动了一系列雄心勃勃的建筑计划，旨在实现德国的全面空间重组。作为这些广泛的建筑计划的一部分，该政权投入了大量的时间、精力和资源来创建一个由纪念纳粹意识形态和权力的地方组成的群岛。这种具有纪念意义的地形将大量的地点和空间缝合在一起，形成极权主义的礼仪，为希特勒及其运动的斗争和牺牲的概念而美化。本文研究了纳粹记忆的这种地形如何将无形的意识形态转化为有形的地点和体验，并在此过程中突出了记忆地点、历史保护和地点依恋之间多变的多方面关系。
