Recenzii
"As an introduction to trauma theory and its applications to contemporary literary, artistic, and clinical work, the volume sets a high standard. It reminds us of the limitations of trauma studies as a dominant paradigm and exposes its controversies, while endeavoring to enlarge our understanding of this huge field. Trauma will be useful as an introduction for students who struggle with omnipresent and often confusing conceptions of trauma, but professionals and scholars could equally benefit from reading through its dense but clear summaries of a vast array of sources. I recommend the book whole-heartedly to anyone with an interest or need to gain greater familiarity with the meaning and pervasiveness of trauma at this moment of history."
Lewis Kirshner, Harvard Medical School, American Imago
"Overall, the work succeeds in its attempt to outline the historical trajectory of trauma studies and its application in literary analysis and other means of artistic and cultural production. Historical facts, researchers, works, studies, and terms most important to the development of the field are presented to the reader in clear and succinct language. This is certainly a work of reference and quick reference, useful for the more experienced researcher, while at the same time serving as introductory material of easy access and understanding for students new to the field. In this sense, the book fulfills its intended and announced function as a manual or guidebook, as it explores all the most relevant moments and themes for trauma studies, while also provoking reflections on the subject."

"This book by Lucy Bond and Stef Craps highlights the discourse on trauma. Trauma is regarded as the most intricate, pervasive, severe, and repressed psychological scar that results from terrible experiences in life. It remains unresolved for decades, and generations, which recurs through nightmares, hallucinations, and flashbacks. . . . In conclusion, trauma is a universal and complex thing to be understood in today’s 21st century. With the verge of time, trauma employs various meanings which range from physical to psychological injuries. The evolution of trauma itself has a huge history and asserts cultural relevance in the public sphere. Studying the realms of trauma in an extensional way reflects the new method of analyzing trauma."
