Abstract

In this chapter I explore the theoretical assumptions and conditions that allow for the preservation of memories relating to bodily violence; in order to do so, I take a theoretical approach based on ethics that, for the purposes of this publication, intentionally avoids using case studies or examples. My main argument is that some types of narrative representation, rather than being tools that legitimize violence, can actually serve the objective of preserving vulnerable signs of violence.
