| Title | Literature as a Reflection of Human Rights Abuse: Solzhenitsyn's One Day in Life of Ivan Denisovich and Mahari's Barbed Wires in Blossom |
| Summary | Literature that speaks of human rights contributes to people’s understanding of human rights. By portraying human experiences, it fills in the gaps that legal and historical documentations of human rights abuse and violations cannot fill. It helps to make the concept of human rights more comprehensible, real and relatable for people. This Capstone Thesis explores the importance of literature as an articulation and a reflection of human rights abuse through Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich and Gurgen Mahari’s Barbed Wires in Blossom, which reflect on the human rights abuse in Stalin’s forced labor camps. |
