Wounds of History takes a new view in psychoanalysis using a
trans-generational and social/political/cultural model looking at
trauma and its transmission. The view is radical in looking beyond
maternal dyads and Oedipal triangles and in its portrayal of a
multi-generational world that is no longer hierarchical. This look
allows for greater clinical creativity for conceptualizing and
treating human suffering, situating healing in expanding circles of
witnessing. The contributors to this volume look at inherited
personal trauma involving legacies of war, genocide, slavery,
political persecution, forced migration/unwelcomed immigration and
the way attachment and connection is disrupted, traumatized and
ultimately longing for repair and reconnection. The book addresses
several themes such as the ethical/social turn in psychoanalysis;
the repetition of resilience and wounds and the repair of these
wounds; the complexity of attachment in the aftermath of trauma,
and the move towards social justice. In their contributions, the
authors remain close to the human stories. Wounds of History will
be of interest to psychoanalysts, psychologists and other mental
health professionals, as well as students or teachers of trauma
studies, Jewish and gender studies and studies of genocide.
