The figure of the rampage school shooter continues to present a challenge to educational thought and research. This dissertation examines discursive representations of unacknowledged shame, violence and forgiveness in young adult fiction written about rampage school shootings. I frame my thinking of concepts and analysis through Hannah Arendt's discussion of shame, violence, and forgiveness.
