Traumatic Pasts, originally published in 2001, offers a variety of
perspectives on mental trauma in war, medicine, culture and society
in modern European and American history. Its primary goals are: to
provide a generous sampling of the best of the historical
scholarship about trauma; to indicate the empirical, analytical and
methodological scope of this work; and to present some of the
conceptual and methodological issues inherent in writing about the
subject. The book operates on the premise that the historical
humanities have something crucially important to say about trauma;
its essays may be read, in part, as attempts to introduce a deep
historical dimension into ongoing debates and controversies.
However, it is important to stress that these essays are not simply
addressed the concerns; rather, they reflect a shared conviction
that trauma opens up fresh perspectives in the study of social and
cultural history.
