Memory work
How I learned to be more careful with referencing on wikipedia. One of my first articles posted in wikipedia was Memory Work:

'The very condition of a deconstruction may be at work in the work, within the system to be deconstructed. It may already be located there, already at work. Not at the center, but in an eccentric center, in a corner whose eccentricity assures the solid concentration of the system, participating in the construction of what it, at the same time, threatens to deconstruct. One might then be inclined to reach this conclusion: deconstruction is not an operation that supervenes afterwards, from the outside, one fine day. It is always already at work in the work. Since the destructive force of Deconstruction is always already contained within the very architecture of the work, all one would finally have to do to be able to deconstruct, given this always already, is to do memory work. Yet since I want neither to accept nor to reject a conclusion formulated in precisely these terms, let us leave this question suspended for the moment.' JACQUES DERRIDA MEMOIRES FOR PAUL DEMAN COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PRESS, 1986

As point of departure Gabriel examined Edgar Reitz's eleven-part West German television series entitled Heimat. Reitz' work was in response to a larger movement in Germany national memory work provoked in part by an American television series entitled the Holocaust followed viewed by millions. In her article entitled Barbara Gabriel (2004) provides a model for reading the complexities of memory and forgetting by situating unheimlich within the heimlich, in a Freudian 'one within the other structure'. She develops the concept of an impulse towards national memory work in Germany that stemmed from a haunted subject yearning for a lost, far away, nostalgic place, a utopic homeland. "How do we confront that which we have excluded in order to be, whether it is the return of the repressed or the return of the strangers?" (Kristeva 1982). In other words, that which we fear as 'other' is within ourselves through our shared humanity. Repressed memories haunt all of us. References:

I used 'quote' with the reference but using Duplication Detector it showed as a copy of a text on Derrida_(Film) (2002).

Now I know I should have used a quote box or "" no 'quote' then or at least,

After this notification I learned a lot about using reference and quotation templates, etc:
