Jesus' crucifixion was a traumatic event. After Jesus'
resurrection, the disciples were both astonished and
terrified-Jesus was no longer dead, but the wounds from the
crucifixion were still etched in his body. The return of Jesus was
supposed to be a joyous occasion, but the trauma of the weekend's
events nevertheless creeped into the space following the
resurrection. The resurrection story is one of betrayal, denial,
beatings, public rejection, humiliation, and execution. Experiences
like this do not disappear from memory. Christ has died, Christ is
risen, but trauma will come again. Testimony and Trauma explores
the Christian practice of testimony through the lens of
articulation theory in order to facilitate healing.

This book delves into the public character of public theology from
the sites of subalternity, the excluded Dalit (non) public in the
Indian public sphere. Raj Bharat Patta employs a decolonial
methodology and explores the topic in three parts: First, he
engages with 'theological contexts,' by mapping global and Indian
public theologies and critically analysing them. Next, he discusses
'theological companions,' and explains 'theological subalternity'
and 'subaltern public' as companions for a subaltern public
theology for India. Finally, Patta explains 'theological contours'
by discussing subaltern liturgy as a theological account of the
subaltern public and explores a subaltern public theology for
India.
