Abstract: »Tanya Serisier provides a crucial theoretical framework for reading testimonial about sexual violence by considering the discursiveness of all experience, beginning to map out the tropes and conventions of the genre of the survivor narrative, and exploring how critical work can be an act of political solidarity aimed at breaking the silence around rape in a powerful and communal way.« (Source: Hewett, Heather, et al.»Introduction: Literary Studies as Literary Activism.« #MeToo and Literary Studies: Reading, Writing, and Teaching about Sexual Violence and Rape Culture.
