Dani Bostick: What Can Ancient Literature Teach Us About Coping With Trauma
February 26, 2021, 12pm EDT
change our relationship with time, a common post-traumatic phenomenon often ignored in diagnostic manuals. The Covid-19 pandemic has made the notion of temporal distortions more relatable because of trauma, disruptions to routine, and more general changes to our way of life. Focusing on Aeneas' speech to his men as a blueprint for restoring temporal order out of chaos, this lecture will examine what Vergil communicates about trauma and its aftermath through his representation of time.
