This article seeks to emphasize how Freud, since the First World War, devoted his creative interests to the processes of construction and destruction of culture and hatred that was diffused in Europe as a consequence of the totalitarian regime of Nazi-fascism. Actually, also we search to gather elements in the thought of Hanna Arendt and Judith Butler to understand the consequences of the major social disasters of modernity and the human being. Therefore, we appeal to the notion of trauma extracted from Freudian thought and the concept of violence and power of the aforementioned authors, to elucidate what happens in large-scale disasters and those that occur in the scope of individual experience. We conclude that even those who found themselves threatened by the traumatic experience of violence can build the possibility of rescuing memory, even when crossed by the speech of violence.
