{"product_id":"9783770565733","title":"Oblivionism : Forgetting and Forgetfulness in Modern Science","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe book offers a fundamental view on the problem of forgetting in sociology in general and within sociology of knowledge. Furthermore it focuses - as a case study - on the field of modern science. With recourse to the term 'oblivionism', originally introduced with ironic-critical intent by the german romance scholar Harald Weinrich, it analyzes the fundamental and multifaceted problem of the loss of knowledge in the field of science. A declarative-reflective, an incorporated-practical and an objectified-technical memory motif is at the centre. These form the basis for the development of the three forms of forgetting that are also central to modern science: forgetfulness, wanting to forget and, ultimately, making one forget. Oliver Dimbath is Professor of General Sociology at the University of Koblenz-Landau. As a sociologist of memory, he has written numerous works on questions of social memory as well as social remembering and forgetting. He is co-editor of the book series 'Soziales Gedächtnis, Erinnern und Vergessen - Memory Studies'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brill Fink; Brill | Fink","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49063340081387,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":134.54,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9783770565733","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
