Between the Eye and the 'I' in Witness Poetry: Ethical Responsibilities of Representation of Traumatic Events and Situations
2011
single work
criticism
— Appears in: The Flame in the Fire 2011; 'The critical essay, Between the Eye and the 'I' in Witness Poetry: Ethical Responsibilities of Representation of Traumatic Events and Situations, examines contemporary theory relating to trauma, trauma studies, witness poetry and the role of the witness poet. After close scrutiny, the position of the eye and the 'I' witness is found to alter constantly, with variations in place and time, and when revisited, re-contextualised by the fusion of foresight and hindsight. This pivotal conclusion, of being conscious of the reconstituting of a moment in the moment of its revisiting by the witness poet, is in turn applied to the integration of the creative practice undertaken to produce this thesis. The perceived ethical position of the writer, before the interaction between the critical and creative process, is re-contextualised in and by the writing experience, and the representation of trauma revisited with acknowledged heightened awareness of its attendant ethical responsibilities.'
