Abstract
This chapter suggests a new perspective on Améry as a holocaust survivor suffering from Post-traumatic Stress Disorder or Complex Grief. Based on my research and clinical work I assume that imagination and playfulness are protective elements in traumatic incidents that Améry knew about it but for reasons described in the chapter resented this option.
