Trauma studies, a field of cultural enquiry that boomed in a brief span of around a decade at the turn of 21stcentury,  according  to  Marder,  “has  something  of  a  privileged  and  paradoxical  relationship  to interdisciplinary  studies”  (2006,  p.  1). One  of  the  areas with which  the  field maintains  such  frontier, which,  as  yet,  has  not  drawn  serious  attention,  is  communication  studies.  To  examine  the  nature  of interdisciplinary  linkage,  the paper: 1)  revisits  a number of  trauma  theories  setting  them  against major postulations  in media  studies  and  explores  the nature of  communication  circuit  assumed  in  the  trauma theories, and 2) suggests the applicability of communication models in understanding trauma theories and opening up  further potential  to  theorizing  trauma  studies. The paper  begins with  a brief  note on  some major  theoretical positions  in  trauma  and media  studies based on  the principle of  reciprocal  relevance. Then, it brings to light the insight from media that runs prominently but in limited and modified version in trauma theories to reveal how media theories underlie in the postulations of literary trauma. Finally, I purposes  possibility  of  interdisciplinary  borrowing,  particularly  of  George  Gerbner"s  communication model to apprehend issues in trauma studies in general and trauma narration in particular
