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 about how the shared past affects the individual and collective present. Daan builds a narrative, as if moving between places of collective pain: concentration camps, prisons, countries with difficult past. What remains with us, and what is lost forever in those places where we attribute things that are already officially ‘over’?
The Ancestor Syndrome: Transgenerational Psychotherapy and the Hidden Links in the Family Tree
by Anne Ancelin Schützenberger
Written by a carefully scientific and experienced psychotherapist, it represents one of the most clear and compelling texts on the transgenerational transmission of trauma. Like a complex ornament, events distant in time and space, and 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. The author offers a methodology and a set of tools for dealing with what lies behind the recurring patterns of family dynamics.
