The analysis of this omnipresent character intends to light on the crucial therapeutic question concerning the integration of a traumatic event into the symbolic order.This paper addresses the transformation of subjectivity in trauma by considering recent psychopathological research, especially in relation to the works of Judith Herman and Bessel van der Kolk.
