Abstract

This paper considers some reactions of a small group (fifteen) of American scholars to a summer of work in India. Dream and memory materials gathered during a three‐month period suggest the repression of certain kinds of symbolic links to American culture. Highly affective imagery is displaced by forms of cultural identification that do not threaten the individual's capacity to adapt to a traumatic cultural confrontation.
