Between Hope and Despair: Pedagogy and the Remembrance of Historical Trauma
ISBN: 9780847694631 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. At the end of the century of unfathomable suffering, societies are facing anew the question of how events that shock, resist assimilation, and evoke contradictory and complex responses should be remembered. This work examines the pedagogical problem of how remembrance is to proceed when what is to be remembered is underscored by a logic difficult to comprehend and which is subversive of the humane character of existence. This pedagogical attention to practice to remembrance reflects the growing cognisance that hope for a just and compassionate future lies in the sustained, if troubled working...

In the words of Stuart Hall: 'Reading Gramsci has fertilised our political imagination, transformed our way of thinking, our style of thought, our whole political project'. Gramsci's creative use of terms such as hegemony, civil society and historic block adds a new dimension to political vocabulary. But the fragmentary nature of his writings, especially in the Prison Notebooks, means that it is not always easy to grasp the full significance...
