Histoire du trauma

Traumatextualities: Trauma in the clinical, arts and humanities contexts 

Call for papers

Following the huge success of the 2010 and 2012 IHHN conferences in Nottingham and New Jersey (USA), Nottingham Health Humanities and the ICSPCRR (International Consortium for the Study of Post-Conflict Reconstruction and Reconciliation) are pleased to announce the 3rd IHHN conference, to be held in Nottingham. 

With the centenary of WW1, the occasion to reflect on the broader realities of conflicts and their traumas is of paramount importance. We are looking for papers that will engage with the topics of war, conflict, trauma, PTSD, among others, in a diverse array of contexts, past or present, military and non-military. Papers should have an interdisciplinary approach and serve as the interface between Health and Humanities contexts. 

We seek submission of abstracts for 20-30 minutes presentations on, but not limited to:

-Trauma in Literature and the arts

- PTSD

- History of Conflict and War

- Individual experiences of trauma in arts, texts and humanities

- General Health Humanities themed papers.
