Description

Dorota Glowacka's Disappearing Traces explores the complex relationships between ethics and aesthetics in Holocaust literature, art, and philosophy. By engaging with key thinkers such as Levinas, Benjamin, Lyotard, and Derrida, Glowacka examines how language shapes our understanding of traumatic memories and the act of bearing witness. This book brings together diverse discourses and disciplines to challenge existing paradigms of representation and create new ways to engage with the past. Glowacka's work reveals the need for innovative approaches that transform and transcend traditional methods of representing trauma.
