De filmjournalistiek is morsdood. Oppervlakkigheid en willekeur hebben een meer ernstige en gefundeerde kijk op cinema weggevaagd. En dus is een boek dat dieper graaft naar de verborgen structuur en betekenis van narratieve films opportuun. We nemen de cinefiel, de filmstudent, de scenarist en al wie meer wil weten over de opbouw van een mooi filmverhaal mee op een unieke speurtocht. Die tocht wordt almaar complexer en onthullender. De kunstenaars wiens werken we tijdens deze cinefiele gold rush trachten te doorgronden zijn de allerbeste verhalenvertellers: David Lean, David Mamet, Alfonso Cuarón, Tony Gilroy, Christopher Nolan, David Lynch en andere grote filmmakers. We beginnen met films met een zeer lineaire en mathematische structuur ( ‘Jaws’, ‘The Untouchables’) en evolueren naar narratief complexere werken met een nonlineaire structuur (‘Mullholland Dr.’,‘Memento’).

Despite a stated commitment to cross-cultural solidarity, trauma theory—an area of cultural investigation that emerged out of the 'ethical turn' affecting the humanities in the 1990s—is marked by a Eurocentric, monocultural bias. This book takes issue with the tendency of the founding texts of the field to marginalize or ignore traumatic experiences of non-Western or minority groups, and to take for granted the universal validity of definitions of trauma and recovery that have developed out of the history of Western modernity. Moreover, it questions the assumption that a modernist aesthetic of fragmentation and aporia is uniquely suited to the task of bearing witness to trauma, and criticizes the neglect of the connections between metropolitan and non-Western or minority traumas. Combining theoretical argument with literary case studies, Postcolonial Witnessing contends that the suffering engendered by colonialism needs to be acknowledged more fully, on its own terms, in its own terms, and in relation to traumatic First World histories if trauma theory is to have any hope of redeeming its promise of cross-cultural ethical engagement.

Shows how the novels elaborate an ethics of alterity by means of a detailed study of one of Swift's most persistent and fascinating -- yet all too often ignored -- concerns: the traumatic experience of reality. Swift's texts evoke the cultural pathologies of a nation (post-war Britain) and an era (modernity) through the narratives of individual characters who are struggling to come to terms with a traumatic personal and collective past. By providing a wide-ranging and in-depth analysis of Swift's novels against the background of the 'ethical turn' in literary studies and the emergence of trauma theory, this book extends and enriches our understanding of what is arguably one of the most significant literary oeuvres of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
