Resistance to Tyranny:
Representing the Struggle for Human Rights in Literature
In an interview with Amnesty International, Chilean writer and activist Ariel Dorfman
explains that, despite efforts to silence survivors of human rights violations, "Somehow the
stories do come out, those voices do come out. I am not their voice: I make a space for
those voices, a bridge." Dorfman's insights raise questions about the role of literature in
the struggle for human rights. How do writers represent often unspeakable crimes against
"Aestheticism: De-humanizing or Re-humanizing Art, the Artist, and the
Artistic Receptor?"
