Contributors offer a fresh perspective on the experiences of violence and loss in 1939-1945, examining their long-term effects in diverse cultures and societies. Through in-depth analysis of traumatic experiences among soldiers and civilians, the chapters broaden the scope of trauma studies beyond psychiatric discourses and treatments. While acknowledging the challenges of applying modern medical concepts to the past, the book advocates for a cultural, social, and historical approach to understanding trauma. By shifting the focus of historical trauma studies from World War I to World War II and from Western Europe to the East, it breaks new ground and contributes to our understanding of the complex politics of memory and trauma in post-1945 Europe, extending even to the present day. This remarkable work emerged as a result of a workshop project titled 'Historical Trauma Studies,' funded by the Joint Committee for the Nordic Research Councils in the Humanities and Social Sciences (NOS-HS) in 2018-2019.
