The analysis focuses on the relationship woven within a particular world of the resilient individual, constructed in counter-dependence within a story of successive dramas. How do those around, especially the child of such a resilient person, continue to be the bearer of the initial shock, in relation to its parent? The hypothesis is that there is a transmission of trauma.
