Description

At the end of the century of unfathomable suffering, societies are facing anew the question of how events that shock, resist assimilation, and evoke contradictory and complex responses should be remembered. This work examines the pedagogical problem of how remembrance is to proceed when what is to be remembered is underscored by a logic difficult to comprehend and which is subversive of the humane character of existence. This pedagogical attention to practice to remembrance reflects the growing cognisance that hope for a just and compassionate future lies in the sustained, if troubled working through of these issues.
