AbstractA contribution to a scholarly controversy that has been on-going for a quarter century now, this article provides a critical review of previous studies on the existence of post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD) as a consequence of extreme violence in the ancient world. It highlights methodological difficulties in attempting to ‘diagnose’ psychological illnesses across a distance of more than two millennia by means of highly stylized literary texts. Simultaneously, it introduces crucial new evidence in the form of a late antique papyrus originally published in 1924 (P.Oxy. 16/1873), which has hitherto been almost completely ignored by scholarship. The papyrus, a letter written by a man called Martyrios in sixth century Lycopolis and addressed to his father, recounts psychological war trauma as a result of an attack on his hometown. He does so in a first-person perspective, using a highly select and unusual vocabulary to describe his emotional impairment. Because of its syntactical and vocabulary extravagance, this letter is sometimes seen as a fictional literary reflex. The authors argue, on the contrary, that this letter is the only reliable documentary evidence for psychological war trauma from the ancient world known so far.

Transgenerational Transmission Of Trauma

I have never been in war. So, I hesitate to say anything about the injuries of war but the concept of Transgenerational Transmission of Trauma (TTT) helps me to think about the footprints of war surrounding me. I will focus on three types of TTT. First, transmission through unconscious processes in society as a whole; second, transmission through related media; and third, direct and indirect transmission within family. These overlap with one another and develop hand-in-hand.Nunca estuve en la guerra. Por ello me cuesta decir cualquier cosa sobre las heridas de guerra, pero el concepto de Transmisión Transgeneracional del Trauma (TTT) me ayuda a pensar sobre las huellas de la guerra que me rodean. Me centraré en tres tipos de TTT. Primero, la transmisión por procesos inconscientes en la sociedad global; segundo, la transmisión a través de medios relacionados; y tercero, la transmisión directa e indirecta dentro de la familia. Se solapan entre sí y se desarrollan mano-a-mano.
