Description

"This collection casts the spotlight on Asia and its place in global studies on trauma to explore the ways in which violence and trauma is (re)enacted, (re)presented, (re)imagined, reconciled and consumed through various mediums in the region. The discussions revolve around the ethics of representing and discussing trauma as we negotiate the tensions between trauma and political, historical, literary and cultural representations in written, visual, digital and hybrid forms. It examines how perspectives about trauma are framed, perpetuated and/or critiqued via theories and research methods, and how a constructive tension between theory, method and experience is essential for critical discourse on the subject. It will discuss varied ways of understanding violence through multidisciplinary perspectives and comparative literature, explore the 'violent psyches' of narratives and writings across multiple mediums and platforms, and engage with how violence and trauma continue to influence the telling and form of such narratives"--
