We are reaching a point in history when the generation who experienced the
Holocaust as survivors, witnesses or exiles will soon disappear. What
happens to our relationship to such a momentous event in global history
when our living connection with such a past is broken? To answer this
question, this article will explore recent French representations of the
Holocaust through the comic book. It will approach such representations
from the perspective of the grandchildren of those who were affected by the
Holocaust, perhaps the last generation to have personal ties to this
wartime past. It will focus specifically on Jérémie Dres’s Nous n’irons pas
voir Auschwitz (2011), translated as We Won’t Go and See Auschwitz. As a
“third generation” narrative, Dres’s work is attentive to stories of Jewish
exile and loss to be found on the margins of Holocaust histories. This
perspective translates into an openness towards transnational histories of
the Holocaust; a recognition of place as a substitute for living memory and
an awareness of comics’ potential to innovate in the transmission of
Holocaust memories. Ultimately, this article will argue that the
contemporary comic book acts as a privileged vehicle of remembrance,
indicative of the reordering of Holocaust representations in an age of
cultural memory.

By placing comics in a lively dialogue with contemporary narrative theory,
The Narratology of Comic Art builds a systematic theory of narrative
comics, going beyond the typical focus on the Anglophone tradition. This
involves not just the exploration of those properties in comics that can be
meaningfully investigated with existing narrative theory, but an
interpretive study of the potential in narratological concepts and
analytical procedures that has hitherto been overlooked. This research
monograph is, then, not an application of narratology in the medium and art
of comics, but a revision of narratological concepts and approaches through
the study of narrative comics. Thus, while narratology is brought to bear
on comics, equally comics are brought to bear on narratology.

How do white queer people portray our own whiteness? Can we, in the stories
we tell about ourselves, face the uncomfortable fact that, while queer, we
might still be racist? If we cannot, what does that say about us as
potential allies in intersectional struggles? A careful analysis of Dykes
To Watch Out For and Stuck Rubber Baby by queer comic icons Alison Bechdel
and Howard Cruse traces the intersections of queerness and racism in the
neglected medium of queer comics, while a close reading of Jaime Cortez's
striking graphic novel Sexile/Sexilio offers glimpses of the complexities
and difficult truths that lie beyond the limits of the white queer
imaginary.

This book updates reader-response criticism as the foundation of aesthetic
reading in the classroom by bringing it in line with cognitive theories in
literary studies and linguistics. With the help of Gilles Fauconnier and
Mark Turner‘s conceptual integration theory, which shares a surprising
number of correspondences with Wolfgang Iser‘s The Act of Reading, it is
possible to flesh out the latter‘s model of narrative meaning-making. In
turn, this allows for a consistent reader-response approach to the medium
of comics and auto/biography as one of its dominant genres. The
fragmentation of comics narratives, but also of human lives and identities,
requires such a theory that can explain how different perspectives and
experiences can be blended into an experiential whole.

In the years following 1975, a group of female-created comic strips came to
national attention in a traditionally male-dominated medium. Typical Girls:
The Rhetoric of Womanhood in Comic Strips uncovers the understudied and
developing history of these strips, defining and exploring the
ramifications of this expression of women’s roles at a time of great change
in history and in comic art. This impressive, engaging, and timely study
illustrates how these comics express the complexities of women’s
experiences, especially as such experiences were shaped by shifting and
often competing notions of womanhood and feminism. Including the comics of
Lynn Johnston (For Better or For Worse), Cathy Guisewite (Cathy), Nicole
Hollander (Sylvia), Lynda Barry (Ernie Pook’s Comeek), Barbara
Brandon-Croft (Where I’m Coming From), Alison Bechdel (Dykes to Watch Out
For), and Jan Eliot (Stone Soup), Typical Girls is an important history of
the representation of womanhood and women’s rights in popular comic strips.

This chapter explores the role of cartoons in contesting psychiatric
knowledge and practice. It suggests that cartoons are an increasingly
important element in the growing repertoire of contention of the
psychiatric survivor movement. It explores how survivor activists have
drawn on creative countercultural traditions of art and subversion to
create new styles of psychiatric contention. Specifically, it examines the
unique role of single-panel cartoons in actively challenging prevailing
notions of normalcy, treatments and systems. It presents some cartoons that
appeared in the UK-based magazine Asylum magazine from 1986-2016 and
analyses how they are used to articulate key themes of psychiatric
contention: ECT; self-harm; psychiatric diagnosis; and recovery. It
suggests the cartoons encapsulate key psychiatric critiques and
communicates their critical messages in a vivid, accessible and often
humorous way. Moreover, the author suggests they are a distinctive form of
what Arthur W Frank has called ‘survivorship as craft’ and tentatively
suggests they are a particular ‘style’ of contestation, created by
psychiatric survivors.
