Discussion Question

Context
How do subsequent generations react to the burdened past of the previous one? How can books, films, art and other means of representation tend to such wounds? How do Maus and The Reader (or Woman in Gold, The Flat, Hannah Arendt, or The Reader[film]) represent the perspectives of subsequent generations of suffering, posing questions to understand, and succeeding and failing in the process? (Post first your response by Friday (4/10) and respond to other posts by Sunday (4/12))

What to do: Review the instructions for this week’s discussion posting.

Preparation
Find a scene that you felt was particularly difficult or gripping for analysis and as evidence for your opinion on justice and the act of healing (or not) in Maus and The Reader.

Instructions
Your initial post should include…

An analysis of a passage from Maus or The Reader (or one of the films) that you see as working through Guilt and/or Post-Memory (second-hand) trauma and its effects on the reader/viewer.
What are the limits of trauma, if any? How far can guilt and responsibility extend?
