This article progresses Second World War historiography of ‘enemy alien’ internment, especially of the SS Arandora Star, sunk in 1940 with a high loss of Italian civilian lives. Employing a new paradigm, that of the deathscape, defined as a topography of death and the practices that surround it, this investigation recontextualises Arandora Star remembrance in Scotland. Ambiguous loss, complicated grieving, disenfranchisements in mourning and absences in multiple layers of the deathscape form overarching themes that are explored in parallel to emotional-affective memory. The previously neglected study of individual memorialisation, both private and ‘official’, provides an important primary source in the fragmented materiality of the deathscape, allowing fresh insight on both cultural manifestations and political context. As the material and cultural apex of the deathscape, the Italian Cloister Garden and Arandora Star Memorial in Glasgow, created by Archbishop Mario Conti in 2011, are evaluated through the lenses of leadership, identity and heritage activism.

死亡景观、物质性和纪念:苏格兰的 Arandora Star 纪念活动



本文推进了第二次世界大战中“敌方外国人”拘留的史学研究,尤其是 1940 年沉没的 SS Arandora Star,意大利平民损失惨重。这项调查采用了一种新的范式,即死亡景观,被定义为死亡的地形和围绕它的做法,重新审视了苏格兰的阿兰多拉之星纪念活动。模棱两可的失落、复杂的悲伤、哀悼中的剥夺权利以及死亡景观多个层次的缺席构成了与情感-情感记忆平行探索的总体主题。以前被忽视的对个人纪念的研究,无论是私人的还是 “官方的”,在死亡景观的碎片化物质性中提供了一个重要的原始来源,让我们对文化表现和政治背景有了新的见解。作为死亡景观的物质和文化顶点,由大主教马里奥·孔蒂 (Mario Conti) 于 2011 年创建的格拉斯哥意大利修道院花园和阿兰多拉星纪念馆 (Arandora Star Memorial) 通过领导力、身份和遗产行动主义的视角进行评估。
