记忆的纹理：媒介、创伤与南京大屠杀
Li Hongtao Huang Shunming
As the first book in China to study the collective memory of the Nanjing Massacre, this book uses history as its warp and different media scenes as its weft to deeply explore the process of trauma construction and memory shaping of the Nanjing Massacre, revealing how state power, local memory communities, and mass media jointly shape the memory politics and memory culture of the Nanjing Massacre in contemporary China. With the analytical framework of cultural trauma theory as the core, this book traces the construction process of the traumatic narrative of the Nanjing Massacre in mainstream media, its diffusion and reproduction in memorial halls and online public memorial activities, and the narrative challenges faced in cyberspace. Although this book takes "media" as its core, it does not limit itself to the investigation of static "texts" and "symbols". Instead, it strives to reveal the production and reproduction of trauma narratives, the generation of media commemorative spaces, and the practice of memory on the media stage and in memory places.
