- Abstract:
- Abstract: In this paper I will elaborate on the topic of forgiveness seen from a Personal Construct Psychology point of view. I will define it as the choice and the act to subsume one's own and the other's point of view with a superordinate and comprehensive relational construction of "person". I will argue that this can be the consequence of the construction both of the forgiver's and of the forgiven's construction processes by a person who experienced guilt, anger, and sometimes shame and hostility transitions. Drawing particularly upon the account of a survivor of the Auschwitz concentration camp, Eva Kor, I will underline the transformative power of this process for the forgiver.
