Thesis (Ph.D.)--Carleton University (Canada), 2010.

Although spousal abuse is a much-studied field, survivors' long term processes and prospects remain poorly understood. Survivors, researchers, therapists and activists struggle to understand traumatic experiences and respond to them. The process of testimony and witnessing which many turn to in order to make sense and use of trauma can seem both necessary and impossible. The way we perceive and recount traumatic histories, in our efforts to educate, change, or heal may, in fact, perpetuate and compound our personal and social losses. This project uses arts-based inquiry, collaborative feminist group interviews, and autoethnographic methods to provide a postmodern, performative exploration of the post-abuse process. It offers a multi-vocal, vulnerable, playful narrative that is accessible and evocative while challenging and complicating our common-sense perceptions of the aftermath of abuse. It also presents a highly original and well-theorized negotiation of the ethical, methodological, and epistemological problems which confront studies of loss. Through genre-bending conversations with theorists, therapists, professors, family members, survivors, social service providers, her readers, and her dog, the author provides a rigorous and engaging journey into the post-abuse process. The text deconstructs the dominant recovery framework and proposes a generative, oddly hopeful reframing of the post-abuse process using metaphors of haunting and death.
