从为纪念 1991 年路障而举行的里加公共广场低调设计竞赛，到广为人知的苏联陆军士兵纪念碑（本指南中提到的，通常称为“胜利纪念碑”L）的讨论，拉脱维亚首都的纪念场所不断被设计、建造和争夺。该指南的介绍性评论由瓦尔特斯·诺伦多夫斯 (Valters Nollendorfs) 撰写，题为“太多值得记住的事情”，指出了目前首都的这些纪念场所的范围，读者将在这本双语指南的页面上遇到这些纪念场所（评论将重点关注英文翻译）。这个简短的介绍进一步奠定了该卷的包容性基调，其中 L [纪念场所] 记住了塑造未来事物的重要事件和重要人物 L (18)。凭借这一广泛的指导性说明以及标题中所涵盖的主题和时间范围，本书涵盖了各种有形的纪念场所，例如纪念碑、牌匾、历史遗址、墓地、坟墓和博物馆。因此，虽然这本书不是对拉脱维亚国家记忆的正式研究，与皮埃尔·诺拉指导下的著名的记忆之地探索相提并论，但它提供了对其轮廓的全面参考。值得强调的是，该指南是在拉脱维亚占领博物馆的赞助下出版的，该项目的想法源于感兴趣的民间社会协会，如 Rigas Memoriãls 和 Latvijas Politiski reresêto apvieniba（参见扉页背面和封底）。在这种背景下，毫不奇怪的是，所涵盖的大部分纪念馆都致力于纳粹德国占领，1941-1944L (91-138) 和苏联占领，1940-1941、1944-1991L (139-292)。正如瓦尔特斯·诺伦多夫斯（Valters Nollendorfs）所说，里加及附近地区的大多数纪念碑都是默默见证了一段不那么崇高的过去，其特点是占领国企图征服和消灭拉脱维亚民族和国家的残酷企图（18）。然而，上述时期虽然很突出，但并没有脱离二十世纪历史的广度。
From the low-key design competition for a public square in Riga to commemorate the 1991 Barricades, to the well-publicized discussions of the Memorial to Soviet Army Soldiers (as it is referred to in this guide and is more commonly known as the LVictory MonumentL), memorial sites in the Latvian capital continue to be designed, built, and contested. The introductory remarks to the guide, entitled LSo much to rememberL by Valters Nollendorfs, offer an indication of the scope of these memorial sites that currently populate the capital and that a reader will encounter on the pages of this bilingual guide (the review will focus on the English translation). This brief introduction further sets the inclusive tone of the volume, where L [memorial sites] remember significant events and important people that shaped things to comeL (18). With this broad guiding note and the thematic and chronological confines captured in the title, the book covers a wide range of tangible memorial sites such as monuments, plaques, historic sites, cemeteries, graves, and museums. As such, while the volume is not a formal study of Latvian national memory on par with the famous exploration of lieux de mémoire under the direction of Pierre Nora, it offers an encompassing reference to its contours.It is worth highlighting the fact that the guide is published under the auspices of the Museum of the Occupation of Latvia and the idea for the project originated with interested civil society associations such as Rigas Memoriãls and Latvijas Politiski represêto apvieniba (see reverse of the title page and the back cover). In this context, it is unsurprising that a large portion of the memorial sites covered is dedicated to Lthe Nazi German occupation, 1941-1944L (91-138) and Lthe Soviet occupation, 1940-1941, 1944-1991L (139-292). As Valters Nollendorfs suggests, Lmost memorials in Riga and [the] vicinity are silent witnesses to a much less elevated past marked by brutal attempts by occupation powers to subjugate and annihilate the Latvian nation and stateL (18). Yet, the above periods, while being prominent, do not remain isolated from the breadth of twentieth-century history.
