- Description
- The essays in this volume discuss narrative strategies employed by international writers when dealing with sexual violencein literature. In developing these feminist readings of rape narratives, the contributors aim to incorporate arguments about trauma and resistance in order to establish new dimensions of healing.The volume considers sexual violence from a number of different angles. Part one considers how the characters of the victim and rapist might be subverted in narratives of sexual violence. In the second part the essays explore how writers approach the subject of rape obliquely using metaphors to represent their suffering and pain. The controversy of not speaking about sexual violence is the focus of the next part, while the last part of the book considers the problems of making sexual violence visible in the poetic image, in film and on stage. The book covers a range of writers which includes like Toni Morrison, Sarah Kane, Sandra Cisneros, Nawal El Saadawi, Yvonne Vera, and Sharon Olds.

documenting incest and the Holocaust

- Description
- Trauma Cinema focuses on a new breed of documentary films and videos that adopt catastrophe as their subject matter and trauma as their aesthetic. Incorporating oral testimony, home-movie footage, and documentary reenactment, these documentaries express the havoc trauma wreaks on history and memory. Janet Walker uses incest and the Holocaust as a double thematic focus and fiction films as a point of comparison. Her astute and original examination considers the Hollywood classic Kings Row and the television movie Sybil in relation to vanguard nonfiction works, including Errol Morris's Mr. Death, Lynn Hershman's video diaries, and the chilling genealogy of incest, Just, Melvin. .Both incest and the Holocaust have also been featured in contemporary psychological literature on trauma and memory. The author employs theories of post traumatic stress disorder and histories of the so-called memory wars to illuminate the amnesias, fantasies, and mistakes in memory that must be taken into account, along with corroborated evidence, if we are to understand how personal and public historical meaning is made.

- The author examines the principles that guide the creation and dissemination of historically based fictional narratives. Are such representations capable of shaping, changing or depicting 'real' human atrocities? How do existing ideas about gender influence the ways these narratives are written and perceived? Moving beyond fictional accounts that have portrayed the carnage of World War II, the Holocaust and the Vietnam War, the author focuses on emerging narratives about recent abuses, including those in South Africa, Rwanda and Iraq.

- Description
- The Danish director Lars von Trier is one of the world's most controversial filmmakers, and arguably so because of the depiction of women in his films. He has been criticized for subjecting his female characters to unacceptable levels of violence or reducing them to masochistic self-abnegation. At other times, it is the women in his films who are dominant or break out in violence.

- This volume examines the interrelationship of women, violence, and media presentations. The book is divided into three sections. The first, “Gendering Constructions,” examins the print media’s presentation of gendered violence, female killers on Law and Order, African American women in Hollywood films, and women in media, crime, and violence textbooks. The second section, “Debating the Issues,” explores aspects of femicide, including mass murder incidents, domestic violence in Bangladesh, and wartime sexual violence in reality and on television. The final section “Changing the Image,” focuses on efforts to replace masculine assumptions with constructive approaches to imagining women.
