DRAWING THE PAST SC VOL 02 COMICS & HIST IMAGINATION WORLD (
UNIVERSITY PRESS OF MISSISSIPP
OCT211871
Contributors examine the many ways in which history worldwide has been explored and (re)represented through comics and how history is a complex construction of imagination, reality, and manipulation. Through a close analysis of such works as
V for Vendetta,
Maus, and
Persepolis, this volume contends that comics are a form of mediation between sources (both primary and secondary) and the reader. When it comes to history, stretching the limits of the imagination only serves to aid in our understanding of the past and, through that understanding, shape ourselves and our futures.
