本文有两个目的。第一个是介绍压缩文化创伤的概念，第二个是将文化创伤理论应用到当前covid-19大流行的两个案例研究中：希腊和瑞典。我们的核心问题是，疫情是否会演变成这两个国家的文化创伤。我们认为，这场流行病对文化创伤理论提出了挑战，而压缩创伤的概念正是为了解决这一问题。我们的结论是，虽然正在发生的 covid-19 大流行给瑞典和希腊造成了创伤性后果，但它并没有演变成这两个国家的文化创伤。
This paper has two aims. The first is to introduce the concept of compressed cultural trauma, and the second is to apply the theory of cultural trauma in two case studies of the current covid-19 pandemic, Greece and Sweden. Our central question is whether the pandemic will evolve into a cultural trauma in these two countries. We believe the pandemic presents a challenge to cultural trauma theory, which the idea of compressed trauma is meant to address. We conclude that, while the ongoing covid-19 pandemic has had traumatic consequences in Sweden and Greece, it has not evolved into cultural trauma in either country.
