Betrayal underlies all psychic trauma, whether sexual abuse or
profound neglect, violence or treachery, extramarital affair or
embezzlement. When we betray others, we violate their confidence in
us. When others betray us, they pierce the veil of our innocent
reliance. Betraying and feeling betrayed are ubiquitous to the
scenarios of trauma and yet surprisingly neglected as a topic of
specific attention by psychoanalysis.This book fills this gap. The
first part deals with developmental aspects and notes that while
the experience of betrayal might be ubiquitous in childhood, its
lack of recognition by the parents is what leads to fixation upon
it. Attention is also given to Oedipally-indulged and seduced
children who feel betrayed later in the course of their
development. Feelings of betrayal during early adolescence are also
discussed. This section of the book closes with an account of
situations where our bodies betray us. The realms of body image
betrayal, body self betrayal, and the body's ultimate betrayal via
physical death are addressed.
