Hardcover. Condition: New. Trauma studies, with its distinct ethical and humanist understanding of the responses to extreme events and its epistemological transgression into the realms of history, politics, memory and culture, contravene our perception of the familiar precincts of human thought and experience. Reading the silenc…es and voices grounded in experiences of pain, damage and violence assumes a broader cultural and political import as they are translated into popular modes of narration and representation. Writing Trauma offers a new critical idiom to talk about the wounds of the past and make sense of the present. Literary and artistic modes of narrating trauma stem from an innate primitive urge to comprehend individual and collective experiences and share it with others. The legacy of trauma on our minds and bodies is so devastatingly lethal that it is impossible to regard human history with complacency. Trauma theory problematizes man's relationship with his past and remaps the contours of his engagement with time and history, in its wake, politicizing and legitimizing hurt and suffering.
