Tibet on Fire: Buddhism, Protest, and the Rhetoric of Self-Immolation
John Whalen-Bridge
Using Kenneth Burke's concept of dramatism as a way of exploring multiple motivations in symbolic expression, Tibet on Fire examines the Tibetan self-immolation movement of 2011-2015. The volume asserts that the self-immolation act is an affirmation of Tibetan identity in the face of cultural genocide.
