Abstract

As various new types of monuments continue to emerge, people have been inspired to discuss how to design, build and protect the monuments and memorial places. Meanwhile, this has become a hot research topic in recent years. The functions of the visualization software CiteSpace, such as articles co-citation, the keyword co-occurrence network, centrality, cluster, and burst words, are employed in this research to make statistical analysis on relevant documents in CNKI and WOS databases from 2012 to 2021. The results show that (1) the key intellectual base of the research on the monuments and memorial places in the past decade is memory research. (2) “Sepulchral monument”, “war and politics of memory”, “memorial space environment” and “memory and media, preservation and/or conservation” are the research frontiers of the monuments and memorial places in four different periods over the past decade. (3) The design, construction and protection of the monuments and memorial places: The inspiration deriving from the fundamental knowledge and the cutting-edge research findings; Place of memory; Attaching much importance to the spirit of the memorial places; Providing visitors with a better on-site experience and giving a better definition for the spiritual significance of the memorial places; The best way to preserve the monuments is incessant research and publicity, which will fortify their status as important place of memory. (4) Based on this research, researchers could continuously discuss the research hotspots and trends of the problem.
