    Introduction:Testimony in Culture and Cultures of Testimony

    No full text
    Jones and Woods state the case for a Handbook of Testimony and Culture against the background of the growth in the amount and types of material that are regarded as testimony, the ever-present nature of testimony in the public sphere, the relatively new interest in perpetrator testimony and the discussion of how to evaluate it. The authors also set out the new ways in which emerging technologies mediate testimony. In the light of all these major developments Jones and Woods argue that many of our existing assumptions about testimony and models for working with it need to be revisited, and they explain that the purpose of the Handbook is to do just that by bringing together a wide range of disciplinary, theoretical, methodological, and practice-based perspectives

    Testimonies of the Self and Others: Sara Jones and Emilie Pine in Dialogue

    No full text
    In this chapter, Sara Jones and Emilie Pine present a staged dialogue centred on their experience of cross-sector projects incorporating witness testimony. The starting point for the dialogue is the project Testimony in Practice – and its major outcome, the play A Land Full of Heroes – which the authors worked on with the Romanian and German novelist Carmen-Francesca Banciu and the theatre company La Conquesta del pol sud. Jones and Pine interweave accounts of their own lives with discussion of the ethics of working with witnesses to trauma and violence, the risk of instrumentalising others, the dialogical nature of research “impact”, the possibility of combining an academic career with the realities of being a human (woman), and feminist resistance to neoliberalisation of Higher Education
