How does a trauma survivor communicate "what can't be said out
loud" to others? In what form? How can we - readers, listeners,
viewers - recognize the pain and suffering hidden behind words,
pictures, or other artifacts produced by trauma survivors? This
volume presents a possible response by bringing together the
"expressions of the unspeakable" by trauma survivors and the
interpretation of researchers in various fields, i.e. clinical
psychologists, linguists, anthropologists, literary and film
scholars, historians, and visual artists, some of whom are
survivors of trauma. By describing or analyzing different
strategies for finding a narrative form for expressing the
survivor's trauma, the contributors offer not only insights into
how the survivors dealt with the pain of traumatic memories but
also how they were able to find hope for healing by telling their
stories, in literature, graphic novels, visual art or simply by
creating a personal narrative in their own voice.
