Bøger i Palgrave Studies in Comics and Graphic Novels serien

Why are so many contemporary comics and graphic narratives written as memoirs or documentaries of traumatic events? The sixteen chapters and three comics included in Documenting Trauma in Comics set out to answer exactly these questions.

Bringing together scholars as well as cultural actors, the contributions combine studies on European and North American comics and offer a representative overview of the main comics genres and forms, including superheroes, Westerns, newspaper comics, diary comics, comics reportage and alternative comics.
