Holocaust tropes -- Victim talk -- American survivors -- Trauma kitsch -- Television : watching the pain of others on daytime talk shows. Talking cures -- Trauma camp -- Popular literature : reading the pain of others in misery memoirs. Selling misery -- Fake suffering -- Forging child abuse -- Simulating Holocaust survival -- Epilogue : fantasies of witnessing. 330 $aIn Popular Trauma Culture, Anne Rothe argues that American Holocaust discourse has a particular plot structure-characterized by a melodramatic conflict between good and evil and embodied in the core characters of victim/survivor and perpetrator-and that it provides the paradigm for representing personal experiences of pain and suffering in the mass media. The book begins with an analysis of Holocaust cliche?s, and then explores the embodiment of popular trauma culture in two core mass media genres: daytime TV talk shows and misery memoirs. 606 $aPsychic trauma and mass media 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in mass media 615 0$aPsychic trauma and mass media. 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in mass media. 676 $a302.23 700 $aRothe$b Anne$01580563 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790599303321 996 $aPopular trauma culture$93861547 997 $aUNINA
