Summary

The book you have in your hands invites you to reflect on the way in which violence and death participate in various personal, social and cultural instances through visuality. It contributes to the understanding and explanation of the way in which representations build and preserve memory, even destroy it. Therefore, the spaces and uses of these images are of interest; the agents who created them; their circulation mechanisms, as well as the gaze of those who observed, interpreted and appropriated them, giving them meaning. This book manages to make the unintelligible, the cumbersome, the forgetful, more understandable issues from different and always relevant theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches. If violence and death, along with the passage of time and forgetfulness, have become stereotypical qualifications to define Latin America, the texts in this book manage to open them up to analysis, explanations, reasoning from their visualities, what that allows to transmute these appreciations into parameters of understanding and understanding.
