Taking Offense And Individual Differences: Who We Are Determines What Offends Us, Sarah J. Mcdougal Sep 2006

Taking Offense And Individual Differences: Who We Are Determines What Offends Us, Sarah J. Mcdougal

Furthermore, the state of abject being can lead to masochistic practices. According to Julia Kristeva, abjection translates into a ìconceptual spaceî that has its roots in the Freudian Oedipal complex. Kristeva, following Lacan, also points to the connection between abjection and language. Joyceís character Stephen Dedalus and Beckettís Molloy/Moran both utilize this conceptual space and language in the narrative provides clues to their abject states. Joyceís A Portrait of …
