SESSION I: SHADOWS OF HISTORY

In Conversation: Dr Roger Nelson with Ho Tzu Nyen, Nguyen Trinh Thi, and Dr June Yap

Dedicated to the uncovering of neglected histories, this session will look at the construction of historical narratives and its role imn reflecting social, political, and cultural conditions. Occluded by propaganda of progress and nation building, what has been left out and rendered unpseakable in the region's bid to establish national identities and politcal autonomy? Referencing the works of Ho Tzu Nyen and Nguyen Trinh Thi, this session traces post-war and Cold War legacies in Asia and investigates its lingering spectres.
