Abstract: "This article will attempt to review the historical literature on these and other ghosts and on the structures of temporality that have made ghostly appearances and disappearances possible. While my initial point of departure is Yugoslavia, the focus of the article is on the modem context of the ""memory crisis,"" and more specifically on the imagination of a collective but imperiled national past bounded in time and space, as well as on the reconfiguration of private life and private remembrance in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. (from the article)"
