해리성 정체성 장애의 문학적 함의 연구: 『지킬 박사와 하이드』와 『도리언 그레이의 초상』을 중심으로

초록

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and The Picture of Dorian Gray deal with the characters, Jekyll and Dorian who suffer from their double nature. The corrupted nature of Hyde, Jekyll’s the other ego, is reflected in the mirror while Dorian's divided nature is reflected through the picture of him. What is common is that their other natures of evil are clearly mirrored as the independent monstrous egos which still belong to the imaginary world of the infancy stage. The egos have been created and formed as a result of the reflections of the trauma they experienced in their childhood. So they come to have dissociative identity disorder to defend themselves from mental or physical pain. If then, why and how should Dr. Jekyll's and Dorian Gray’s dissociative identity disorder be interpreted? In this study, accordingly, we will examine the literary implications of dissociative identity disorder that Dorian and Jekyll show, from the concept of Jacques Lacan's mirror stage as well as from those of Michel Foucault's metaphorical mirror and Gilles Deleuze's simulacre.
