Trauma and Memory is now in its second year. The challenge faced in publishing an European journal addressing problems posed by memory and the reprocessing of psychic traumas continues. In this year’s first issue we present two essays on Primo Levi, by David Meghnagi and Angela Aglaia. Primo Levi is an author of fundamental importance in the literature of the Shoah. In March 2012, the 2nd level International Masters Degree in the Didactics of the Shoah (Roma Tre University) devoted an entire conference to Levi. This was a back drop for the reflection on the testimony that Trauma and Memory addressed in its first two issues and will continue in the future. This issue also contains an essay by Elisa Guida on books written by Edith Bruck, a Jewish author of Hungarian origin who survived Auschwitz, and in May we will devote a day of study to her work at Roma Tre University. Following publications in previous issues we are presenting an interesting testimony, much read in Italian schools, by the Roman Jewish author Lia Levi. We are also publishing Giovanna Gallio’s a long interview with Pier Francesco Galli about the history of post-war Italian psychiatry and psychiatric training, published in issue no. 1, 2008, Volume 42, pp. 89-106, of the Italian quarterly journal Psicoterapia e Scienze Umane (www.psicoterapiaescienzeumane.it). With this publication we want to begin a collaboration between the journal Trauma and Memory and the journal Psicoterapia e Scienze Umane; further material will appear in the following issues.

Abstract

Trauma and Memory is now in its second year. The challenge faced in publishing an European journal addressing problems posed by memory and the reprocessing of psychic traumas continues. In this year’s first issue we present two essays on Primo Levi, by David Meghnagi and Angela Aglaia. Primo Levi is an author of fundamental importance in the literature of the Shoah. In March 2012, the 2nd level International Masters Degree in the Didactics of the Shoah (Roma Tre University) devoted an entire conference to Levi. This was a back drop for the reflection on the testimony that Trauma and Memory addressed in its first two issues and will continue in the future. This issue also contains an essay by Elisa Guida on books written by Edith Bruck, a Jewish author of Hungarian origin who survived Auschwitz, and in May we will devote a day of study to her work at Roma Tre University. Following publications in previous issues we are presenting an interesting testimony, much read in Italian schools, by the Roman Jewish author Lia Levi. We are also publishing Giovanna Gallio’s a long interview with Pier Francesco Galli about the history of post-war Italian psychiatry and psychiatric training, published in issue no. 1, 2008, Volume 42, pp. 89-106, of the Italian quarterly journal Psicoterapia e Scienze Umane (www.psicoterapiaescienzeumane.it). With this publication we want to begin a collaboration between the journal Trauma and Memory and the journal Psicoterapia e Scienze Umane; further material will appear in the following issues.
