T1 'Self' and 'Other' in Jeanette Winterson's The Passion
A1 Onega, Susana
AB Male postmodernist fiction often shows an obsessive desire to underminethe concept of the bourgeois individual subject characteristicof classic realism. However, women writers on the whole do not feelcomfortable with an aesthetics of impersonality because it would bedeeply at odds with women’s own experience of subordination andobjectification. The paper analyses the way in which, in The Passion,Jeanette Winterson attempts to reconcile her rejection of the conventionsof classic realism with her need for definition of selfhood withinthe framework of Freudian and Lacanian theory.
