Interrogating Trauma

Collective Suffering in Global Arts and Media

Herausgeber: Broderick, Mick; Traverso, Antonio

Beschreibung

There is now a significant body of theory across academic disciplines focussed on the representation of cataclysmic European and US historical events. This book examines the concept of trauma by deploying diverse applications of conventional trauma theories. It examines the limitations of these theories while advancing alternative conceptual and methodological possibilities. This book was published as a special issue of Continuum: Journal of Media and Cultural Studies.
