- This 80,000-word, five-chapter book demonstrates sustained research effort over seven and a half years, drawing on a large body of material from an extensive range of interdisciplinary fields, including primary and secondary historical sources, postcolonial theory, memory studies, aesthetics, political philosophy, Algerian literature, and French and Algerian film. The density and diversity of this material evolved into a complex thesis which argued that film aesthetics can reflect or challenge historical omissions around political traumas. The book is the first to offer a comparative examination of French and Algerian cinemas, the result of nine years of work on this topic.
