The Theater of Trauma is a groundbreaking re-reading of the
relations between psychology and drama in the age of Eugene
O'Neill, Susan Glaspell, and their many brilliant contemporaries.
American modernist Theater of Trauma drew its vision from the
psychological investigation of trauma and its consequences - among
them hysteria and dissociation - made by French and American
psychiatrists such as the great Pierre Janet, Alfred Binet, William
James, Morton Prince, and W.E.B. Du Bois; the European and American
« dissociationist culture that developed around their work; and the
resulting trauma of World War I. American dramatists' deep
resistance to Freud's suppression of trauma challenges the equation
of Freud and modernism that has become commonplace in modernist
criticism.
