Description

Explore the complex ways histories are debated through the lens of truth commissions in the Global South. This volume from the Literary Cultures of the Global South series examines how historicity and historiography are questioned through specific narrative modes. As truth commissions became a widespread phenomenon during the 1990s and 2000s, they created new ways to process the past. This book traces the various medial responses that have emerged following these commissions, including memoirs, fiction, poetry, film, and art. From the early truth commissions in post-junta Latin America in the 1980s to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission established by the post-apartheid government in South Africa, this work provides a deep look into how different regions respond to historical trauma. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of literature, politics, and social memory in the Global South.
