Abstract
On February 1, 2022, the online seminar “Conceptualising Archipelagic Memory” was organized as the curtain-raiser event for the Archipelagic Memory project and the international conference that took place in August of the same year. The seminar brought together Professors Michael Rothberg and Vijaya Teelock, in conversation with Ananya Kabir, to initiate a discussion on practices of memory-making in archipelagic spaces and through archipelagic structures, and on the meanings and possibilities embedded in the notion of “archipelagic memory.” In this annotated transcript of the conversation, Rothberg and Teelock reflect with Kabir on their research trajectories and expertise, provoking new models of analysis constitutive of an archipelagic approach to Indian Ocean cultural history.
