Beskrivning
This Palgrave Handbook examines the ways in which researchers and practitioners theorise, analyse, produce and make use of testimony. It explores the full range of testimony in the public sphere, including perpetrator testimony, testimony presented through social media and virtual reality. A growing body of research shows how complex and multi-layered testimony can be, how much this complexity adds to our understanding of our past, and how creators and users of testimony have their own complex purposes. These advances indicate that many of our existing assumptions about testimony and models for working with it need to be revisited. The purpose of this Palgrave Handbook is to do just that by bringing together a wide range of disciplinary, theoretical, methodological, and practice-based perspectives.

“Essays in this collection will feature on undergraduate reading lists in Cultural Studies, Modern Languages and History courses … for a long time to come. ... This collection is a fascinating and interesting addition to the literature that needs to be explored and studied by a broad range of scholars, practitioners, and policymakers – anyone, in short, who may need to think critically and creatively about testimony.” (Jaime Ashworth, Historical Dialogues, Justice, and Memory Network, historicaldialogues.org, May 5, 2024)
