Children of War and Grandchildren of War: How Traumas Shape Generations
How do experiences of war, the Nazi era, and family silence affect generations? The lecture Transgenerational Transmission of Traumas at vhs Karlsruhe introduces a socially and therapeutically relevant topic.
Memories that Endure
The starting point is the journalistic research of Sabine Bode on the traumas of children in the Yugoslav Wars and her subsequent engagement with German war children. The focus is on what people remember who experienced the atrocities of the Nazi era and World War II as children.
Between Family History and Present
The lecture highlights how unprocessed experiences within families can have a lasting impact. The perspective of the grandchildren of war is also brought into focus. The event experience connects historical context with questions from therapeutic practice and creates space for nuanced discussion.
Historical Expertise and Therapeutic Perspectives
Margarete Lorinser is a historian as well as a gestalt and family therapist, and a licensed practitioner for psychotherapy. Her interdisciplinary perspective combines historical research, therapeutic practice, and current research from neuroscience.
An Evening for Societal and Personal Reflection
The event is aimed at anyone interested in contemporary history, family biographies, psychology, and the transmission of experiences. In the focused atmosphere of vhs Karlsruhe, an evening is created that encourages listening, thinking, and personal exploration of family history.
Conclusion: Understanding History, Experiencing the Present More Consciously
The lecture offers an informative introduction to the transgenerational transmission of traumas and connects historical perspectives with therapeutic and neuroscientific questions. Those who want to better understand the connections between war experiences, memory, and family history will experience an informative evening in Karlsruhe with lasting insights.
