In an era that plays host to war, terrorism, civil unrest, and
economic uncertainty, it is more vital than ever to think
critically about the ways in which violence is framed, mediated and
regulated through representations. This book explores the
variegated forms violence can take, not only physical but abstract,
emotional and virtual, and directed not only against bodies but
buildings, faiths, cultures, and classes. With essays by experts in
literature, film, drama, art, and philosophy, Violence and the
Limits of Representation contributes to a richer understanding of
violence and its effects. This collection not only offers insight
into the challenges and ethical issues involved in the
representation of violence but, through a concern with the
socio-political contexts of violence, offers a unique set of
perspectives on the conflicts and concerns of the present.
