En savoir plus sur le livre

Exploring the concept of postmemory, this work delves into how the memories of traumatic events impact the lives of those who did not directly experience them, particularly children of survivors. Marianne Hirsch examines the artistic responses of postgeneration artists and writers, highlighting their efforts to create a postmemorial aesthetic that honors the past without appropriation. By intertwining feminist critical strategies with analyses of visual and literary legacies, the book fosters a deeper understanding of memory, trauma, and identity, supported by over fifty illustrations.
