Abstract:

Referring to the academic phenomenon of 'Trauma Studies', this thesis argues that if it is possible to 'speak about and speak through' trauma (Caruth, 1996), such a double operation can only occur through a writing which, paradoxically, touches on what exceeds it. To structure this argument, the thesis proposes a distinction between 'Trauma Studies' – as a discipline or field of academic study – and a trauma study; the latter being a writing (on) trauma which suffers and survives as an inscription of the traumatic event, an event which nevertheless remains irreducible to the text 'as such'.

<p> The relationship between international development and psychological aid is a very complex one.

Graphic Intimacies: Identity, Humor, and Trauma in Autobiographical Comics by Women of Color examines works of comics art about the lived experience of the comics’ creator. These graphic narratives address racialized difference and the construction of identity while also using humor to negotiate their narrations of traumatic events. I argue that these creators employ the structure of comics to replicate the fragmentary nature of memory. Comics allow for the representation of trauma as being intimately linked to corporeality. The comics medium allows creators to make visible and present fractur
