lieu de mémoire

Supposed to be English. It's certainly French (see w:fr:Lieu de mémoire), but is it English as well? (Not absolutely sure of the definition, and needs formatting if OK) SemperBlotto 22:07, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

I read it in Brubaker's "Ethnicity as Cognition" and had to look it up. Also, Edward Said has a book subtitled Lieux de Mémoire (ie, plural)CMEHalverson 05:36, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

I find quotations and have added three to the entry, but the word is always italic. I suggest, we preserve it as a "==French==" instead of an "==English==" word... - -sche 19:22, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
