World Memory: Personal Trajectories in Global Time de J. Bennett

World Memory: Personal Trajectories in Global Time

Editat de J. Bennett, R. Kennedy
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 dec 2002
How do we account for experiences of trauma and memory in multicultural and 'globalized' societies? World Memory blends the study of trauma and memory with perspectives from postcolonial theory to explore a range of traumatic personal and socio-historical experiences: September 11, the Holocaust, Stolen Generations, Apartheid, racism, sexual abuse, migration and diaspora. From diverse disciplinary bases, the writers examine psychoanalytic, artistic, literary and vernacular accounts of trauma, collectively revealing what happens when languages of memory traverse boundaries of culture, space and time.

Recenzii

'An excellent, deeply absorbing volume.' - Professor Stephen Frosh, Birkbeck College, University of London
'A significant affirmation and expansion of the new field of trauma and memory studies, World Memory inscribes local cases into global contexts. Its rich theoretical essays draw on psychoanalysis, postcolonial theory, personal testimony and aesthetic and critical discourses to make convincing claims for the broad applicability and explanatory power of the notion of world memory. Readers will find that this book's impressive comparative scope yields surprising insights into the possibilities and the limits of identification and empathy.' - Marianne Hirsch, Dartmouth College, USA
