Trauma theory has become a burgeoning site of research in recent
decades, often demanding interdisciplinary reflections on trauma as
a phenomenon that defies disciplinary ownership. While this
research has always been challenged by the temporal, affective, and
corporeal dimensions of trauma itself, trauma theory now faces
theoretical and methodological obstacles given its growing
interdisciplinarity. Trauma and Transcendence gathers scholars in
philosophy, theology, psychoanalysis, and social theory to engage
the limits and prospects of trauma’s transcendence. This volume
draws attention to the increasing challenge of deciding whether
trauma’s unassimilable quality can be wielded as a defense of
traumatic experience against reductionism, or whether it succumbs
to a form of obscurantism. Contributors: Eric Boynton, Peter
Capretto, Tina Chanter, Vincenzo Di Nicola, Ronald Eyerman, Donna
Orange, Shelly Rambo, Mary-Jane Rubenstein, Hilary Jerome
Scarsella, Eric Severson, Marcia Mount Shoop, Robert D. Stolorow,
George Yancy.
