dc.description.abstractThis article wishes to address the visual rhetoric of the liberation of Ravensbrück within the broader visual system of the Holocaust. Understanding images as a "complex interplay between visuality, apparatus, institutions, bodies, and figurality", I will begin by investigating the rhetorical properties of the Western liberation pictures and the process of their canonization, and then move on to focus on the photographic record of Ravensbrück to tackle two main questions: if the visuality of Ravensbrück entails a particular or distinct rhetoric from the canonical representation and if gender works as an idiom of atrocity, that is, if the photographic depiction of women is graphed as difference, as a gender-specific mode of representation.por
