Since World War II, French and Francophone literature and film have repeatedly sought not to singularize the Holocaust as the paradigm of historical trauma but rather to connect its memory to other memories of violence, especially those of colonialism. These works produced a 'memory-in-complicity' implicating different regimes of violence throughout history as well as different subject positions, such as victim, perpetrator, witness, and reader/spectator. Examining a range of works 'Memory and Complicity' investigates the political force and ethical dangers of such implications.
