Resumes have a long memory. Personal<br />
biographies as well as the common history. The<br />
experiences stored in them can be<br />
superimposed, hushed up, suppressed or<br />
hushed up in the course of time, but not<br />
undone.<br />
Remembering is more than just taking note.<br />
Those who remember or are remembered are<br />
reminded of events and experiences of<br />
personal and collective past, whether joyful or<br />
painful.<br />
The word says that remembering concerns us<br />
internally, it concerns us. Some remembrance<br />
requires courage and perseverance. Some<br />
remembrance is a duty imposed upon us by the<br />
will to justice and truthfulness towards guilt and<br />
failure....<br />
"Thinking about past matters," writes Hannah<br />
Arendt, "means for human beings to go into the<br />
dimension of the deep, to strike roots and thus<br />
to stabilize themselves so that one is not<br />
washed away by everything possible - the spirit<br />
of the age, history or simply the temptation.<br />
