Description:The camp is nothing if not diverse: in kind, scope, and particularity; in sociological and juridical configuration; in texture, iconography, and political import. Adjectives of camp specificity embrace a spectrum from extermination and concentration, to detention, migration, deportation, and refugee camps. And while the geographic range covered by contributors is hardly global, it is broad: Chile, Rwanda, Canada, the US, Central Europe, Morocco, Algeria, South Africa, France and Spain. And yetâ "is to so characterize the camp to run the risk of diffusing what in origin is a concentration into a paratactical series of â oeidentity particularismsâ ? While The Camp does not seek to antithetically promulgate a universalist vision, it does aim to explore the imbrication of the particular and the universal, to analyze the structure of a camp or camps, and to call attention the role of the listener in the construction of the testimony. For, by naming what cannot be said, is not every narrative of internment and exclusion a potential site of agency, articulating the inner splitting of language that Giorgio Agamben defines as the locus of testimony: â oeto bear witness is to place oneself in oneâ (TM)s own language in the position of those who have lost it, to establish oneself in a living language as if it were dead, or in a dead language as if it were living.âWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
