Bücher der Reihe Literary Cultures of the Global South

This book explores the idea of the 'Global South' through the lens of media and communication studies, as well as possibilities of global thinking in the field. It will be of interest to scholars and researchers of media and culture studies, literary and critical theory, digital humanities, and sociology and social anthropology.

This volume deals with the manifold ways in which histories are debated and indeed historicity and historiography themselves are interrogated via the narrative modes of the truth commissions and the various medial responses (memoirs, fiction, poetry, film, art) which have emerged in the wake of the truth commissions.
