This book analyses photographic and cinematographic representations
of war and its memorialisation rituals in the period of late
modernity from the perspectives of cultural sociology, philosophy,
art theory and film studies. It reveals how the experience of war
trauma takes root in everydayness and shows how artists try to
question the 'normality' of the everyday, to actualise the memory
of war trauma, to rethink the contrasting experiences of the time
of war and everydayness, and to oppose the imposed historical
narratives. The new representations are analysed by developing
theories of war as a 'magic spectacle', also by using such concepts
as spectres, triumph and trauma, collective social catastrophes,
forensic architecture and others.
