The book explores the evolving relationship between past, present, and future, introducing the concept of mnemohistory to examine how historical events are perceived and their ongoing significance. It advocates for a redefinition of the term 'event,' emphasizing the importance of understanding the lasting effects and meanings that historical occurrences have in contemporary contexts. Through this lens, the volume broadens the scope of historiography, inviting readers to reconsider how history influences present and future narratives.
