Description: From Melos to My
Lai presents an erudite, provocative and moving analysis of the accounts of
violence in the literature and history of ancient Greece and in the film
literature and veterans' accounts of the Vietnam War.
This comparative
investigation examines the nature of violence, its impact on society and
culture, especially as reflected from the perspective of the survivors. The
survivors include not only actual combatants, but those with whom they
interact: their comrades, their wives and children, families and society as a
whole.
From Melos to My
Lai provides a unique contribution to the study of the impact of violence on
its participants and its audience which combines an examination of the artistic
representations of violence and the real-life accounts of those involved in it.
