(Post)Colonial Histories - Trauma, Memory and Reconciliation in the Context of the Angolan Civil War PDF
Edited by Benedikt Jager, Steffi Hobu
Part of the Postcolonial Studies series
Description
The documentary My heart of Darkness (Sweden 2011) tells the story of a South-African paratrooper returning to Angola: Facing former enemies, he tries to regain mental health and reconciliation.
The film marks the stepping-stone for this volume: The contributions examine different facets like the memory-discourse, genre aspects, the use of music, and authentification processes. Several texts discuss these topics in a more general way including other films. Furthermore, some articles are devoted to the historical context, i.e. the Angolan Civil War and the aftermath of this conflict in the cultural sphere.
