Dissertação (Mestrado em Psicologia) - Universidade Federal de Goiás, Goiânia, 2021.http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/tede/handle/tede/11827This study seeks to offer a reading of two gothic novels: Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1831/2003) and Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights (1847/2021), from the idea of the abject, a psychoanalytical concept developed by Julia Kristeva (1982), and its connections to Freudian formulations. To do so, this work aims to follow precepts that guide the relationship between literature and psychoanalysis in order to provide a reading which is able to create theoretical and symbolical bridges between them and that sustains the limits of both fields, by utilizing Ricœur’s concepts of mimesis I, II and III. In that sense, the thread that connects our analysis is the power and agency of the abject, able to create constant tension between the margins and the center. This disruptive feature points to the construction of a borderline in-between that enables the creation of a space of existence and resistance. Reverberations of this subversion of the discourse through the sign of marginality were found in the works of horror female authors from the 18th and 19th centuries, which indicate ways of subverting the phallic logic through narratives of resistance.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternationalAbjetoDiscurso de resistênciaPsicanálise e literaturaAutoria femininaGóticoDiscourses of resistancePsychoanalysis and literatureFemale authorshipGothicAbjectCIENCIAS HUMANAS::PSICOLOGIADissertação
