Reconciling Past and Place through Rhetorics of Peacemaking, Accountability, and Human Rights in the Archives
Katrina M. Powell
College Composition and Communication, v70 n2 p250-272 2018
The current climate of travel bans, violence and conflict, and reconciliation and accountability in this country and across the globe make the three books discussed here timely and relevant, as they each point out early in their introductions. Individually and collectively, these volumes provide a fascinating way to view the affordances of rhetorical approaches to issues of conflict, human rights, and reconciliation. Each in various ways attends to the intersections of cultural rhetorics, place, and positionality, navigating history and location with insight and innovation. In addition to what they say about cultural spaces and places, each author provides unique methodologies as well, making newly available archives come alive and treating us to archival methodologies that are important and lasting.
