Poetic Representation of Trauma:Breaking Through the Confessional Poetry Writing Strategy by Louis Glück
Trauma is an intensely personal and painful experience.How can one transform unspeakable traumas into experiences that can be openly spoken and shared?Contemporary American poet Louise Glück explores and expresses trauma in her own way,breaking through the limitations of confessional poetry in terms of themes and forms.In her poetry,she explores the universality of trauma through per-sonal experiences and employs techniques such as deconstructing mythological legends,shifting narra-tive perspectives,and artistic silence to create her own poetic language.Through these means,she presents and interprets traumatic experiences,giving them aesthetic and psychological significance.As a result,Glück's trauma writing often carries broader social and historical significance.
