A perverse quest for meaning’
This essay interprets Robert Jay Lifton’s writing on Vietnam veterans as a thinking of history in terms of ‘false witness’. Lifton conceives of a form of history that perpetuates its own erasure and of a new form of witness that emerges from this very annihilation
The Body's Testimony
This article takes as its focus the question, raised by Shoshana Felman and Dori Laub in their 1995 book Testimony: Crises of Witnessing in Literature, Psychoanalysis and History, of what it means for an event to be constituted by the collapse of its witness. The discussion centres on a reading of the moment Yehiel Dinoor, a writer also known as K-Zetnik and one of the few eyewitnesses at the 1961 Eichmann trial in Jerusalem, falls out of the sta…
Unclaimed Experience
"In Unclaimed Experience, Cathy Caruth proposes that in the widespread and bewildering experience of trauma in our century--both in its occurrence and in our attempt to understand it--we can recognize the possibility of a history no longer based on simple models of straightforward experience and reference. Through the notion of trauma, she contends, we come to a new understanding that permits history to arise where immediate understanding may not…

Trauma and Literary Theory
tW~ * ith the publication of three important new books on the psychoanalytic concept of trauma as it intersects with literature, literary theory, historiography, and contemporary culture, it is worth asking why, at this moment, trauma should attract such attention and become a pivotal subject connecting so many disciplines.1 Of course, looking at contemporary American culture and at the history of this

"Unknown Causes"
The beginning of poetic activity is described here, in the general movement of the passage, as an exchange between the loss of the mother and the gain of nature, or a loss of the literal mother and her return in figurative form in nature. But the passage leaves open a deal of uncertainty in this beginning: if the known of the mind's new openness is the beholding of a dear nature, this cause follows upon unknown connected with the original removal…
Past Recognition
The word has a place in the discourse of literature, but to speak today of the Romantic ego is necessarily to juxtapose two different discourses: and psychoanalytic.1 And this is also to suggest that our self-understanding, as articulated within psychoanalytic discourse, can be understood historically, in terms of the relation between psychoanalytic theory and the texts of an earlier period called Romanticism. The nature of this gesturethe repres…
Speculative Returns
As a revision of the Primal Scene, the family romance's falsification shows us that Oedipal fantasies are only ironies, or beginning moments merely, for truly strong poets and poems. This limitation makes the family romance a model neither catastrophic nor creative enough.... While Harold Bloom's two latest books, Agon and The Breaking of the Vessels, loudly proclaim a wilder Gnosticism, we hear in these lines from the latter work the self-woundi…
