The Tears of the Ancestors. Victims and Perpetrators in the Tribal Soul

by Daan Van Kampenhout

A travelogue, a book of reflections, or a series of stories. How shared past affects the individual and collective present. Daan builds a narrative, as if moving between places of collective pain. Concentration camps, prisons, territories with difficult history. What remains with us, and what is lost forever? What do those places of difficult history still carry?

The Ancestor Syndrome: Transgenerational Psychotherapy and the Hidden Links in the Family Tree 

by Anne Ancelin Schützenberger

One of the most clear and compelling texts on the transgenerational transmission of trauma. Written by a carefully scientific and experienced psychotherapist. Like a complex ornament, events far from each other in time and space, sometimes taking place in different parts of the globe, turn out to be connected in an unexpected way. It may seem that later events are predetermined by unconscious, forgotten elements of the past. Author offers a methodology and a set of tools for dealing with what lies behind the recurring patterns of family dynamics.
