The Politics of Dementia : Forgetting and Remembering the Violent Past in Literature, Film and Graphic Narratives / edited by Irmela Marei Krüger-Fürhoff, Nina Schmidt and Sue Vice. Berlin : De Gruyter, 2021. 1 online resource (vi, 228 pages) : illustrations. text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Media and cultural memory ; Volume 32 Description based on print version record. "Memory loss is not always viewed purely as a contingent neurobiological process present in an ageing population; rather, it is frequently related to larger societal issues and political debates. This edited volume examines how different media and genres - novels, auto/biographical writings, documentary as well as fictional films and graphic memoirs - represent dementia for the sake of critical explorations of memory, trauma and contested truths. In ten analytical chapters and one piece of graphic art, the contributors examine the ways in which what might seem to be the individual, ahistorical diseases of dementia are used in contemporary cultural texts to represent and respond to violent historical and political events - ranging from the Holocaust to postcolonial conditions - all of which can prove difficult to remember. Combining approaches from literary studies with insights from memory studies, trauma studies, anthropology, the critical medical humanities and media, film and comics studies, this volume explores the politics of dementia and incites new debates on cultures of remembrance, while remaining attentive to the lived reality of dementia." -- Publisher's website.
