About this ebook

"Trauma is definitive of our current world and increasingly popular in theology. However, engagement with the layers of "trauma" remains thin in Catholic theology. The emerging scholars in Catholic theology who write these chapters explore the intersections of trauma studies and theological studies. Moving through four units, from history to ethics, Witnessing the Wounds provides a necessary, rigorous, and forward-thinking text to prepare lay leaders in various fields, pastors, and theologians to engage the realities of those with whom they work. This book brings together emerging and diverse voices in Catholic theology to engage trauma in its multivalent forms to provide a foundational text for teaching trauma studies in undergraduate and seminary theology, ethics, and church history classrooms."
