Witness and Memory

<p>This is a collection within the anthropology of violence and witness studies a discipline inaugurated in the 1980s. It accomplishes a tight focus while tackling seemingly disparate topics: from Rigoberat Menchu to O.J. Simpson and from feminist poetry to Hiroshima Mon Amour. With approaches ranging from anthropological and historical to literary and philosophical this collection is engaging in both subject matter and writing style. </p>
