| Abstract | ||
| Trauma has profoundly ethical, social, political and historical dimensions. This study examines the concept of trauma and its influence on people’s lives during the pandemic of Corona virus. It also sheds light on poetry therapy and its power to heal traumatic experiences. Trauma can be seen in pandemic poetry, which presents topics related to the areas of psychology and neuroscience. This study focuses on Regin Silvest and John Charles Ryan’s Covid-19 Pandemic Poems Volume I (2020), Morve Roshan and Regin Silvest’s Covid-19 Pandemic Poems Volume II (2020), Regin Silvest and Malini Ganapathy’s Covid-19 Pandemic Poems Volume III (2020). In these volumes, various poets from different countries write about Corona virus (Covid-19) and its consequences, such as death, depression, anxiety, medical infection, and social distance. My argumentative statement is that disordered or traumatized people can have psychiatric treatment through therapeutic processes of reading and writing poetry and behavioral activities. This interdiciplinarity between neuroscience, psychoanalysis and poetry leads to new ways of understanding a person’s self-knowledge and evaluating his relationships with the other. | ||
