Abstract:In this essay, I blend genres—invoking the conventions of ekphrastic, academic, and memoir writing—to piece together stories that function as fodder for simultaneously illuminating and probing the well-established link between trauma and violence. A transgenerational mapping of tales, the essay illustrates interconnectedness among the historical, social, cultural, and familial contexts of and reasons for trauma vis-à-vis the following questions: What knowledge is owed to us, the living, by the dead? What do we owe the dead? What truths do we deserve to reclaim? What must we remember if we are to weather assaults on our (Indigenous)ways of knowing and being? What knowledge of ourselves do we have a right to (re)write in our own voices?
期刊介绍：
In the foreword to the first issue of the The Southern Literary Journal, published in November 1968, founding editors Louis D. Rubin, Jr. and C. Hugh Holman outlined the journal"s objectives: "To study the significant body of southern writing, to try to understand its relationship to the South, to attempt through it to understand an interesting and often vexing region of the American Union, and to do this, as far as possible, with good humor, critical tact, and objectivity--these are the perhaps impossible goals to which The Southern Literary Journal is committed." Since then The Southern Literary Journal has published hundreds of essays by scholars of southern literature examining the works of southern writers and the ongoing development of southern culture.
