Weapons of male destruction : traumatized masculinity and the instrumentation of violence in Faulkner's Sanctuary and Light in August
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
This thesis focuses on the disturbed and disturbing male characters in Faulkner's Sanctuary and Light in August, particularly Popeye and Joe Christmas.Published just one year apart,the two novels both explore constructions of white masculinity and the trauma that not only leads to but also follows in the wake of overtly ritualized performances of maleness.This thesis engages in an in-depth analysis of all of the male characters in both novels, who share a figurative, sometimes even literal, impotence that can be paradoxically attributed to theories of neurosis, anxiety and trauma.Using Freud as a springboard, this thesis proposes that the instrumentation of violence in these novels is the traurrtatized male's response to the culture which has caused the trauma.Ultimately, this thesis provides a significant context for reading Joe Christmas and Popeye's violent traits as traumatized responses to the definitions and impositions of masculinity produced by a culturethat valorizes assertions of aggressive power in men.Furthermore, my gratitude to my family knows no bounds.Without the intellectual, emotional and financial support of my loving parents, Terrence A. and Zenaida "Suffry" Graham, my success would not have been possible.They are two of my biggest heroes and I would like to thank them for being shining examples and, of course, for allowing me to be their favorite charity.I would also like to thank my older sister, Jennifer Graham Cathcart, for helping me convince our parents that it was a good idea for me to pack up and move over 1300 miles to Canada to continue my education.V/ithout her diplomacy and tact, not to mention her powers of persuasion, this would have remained an unrealized dream.Also, a huge thank you must be given to my understanding and supportive husband, Jurg Schlup, for putting up with my numerous rants about castration and male rage.His humorous perspective and thoughtful feedback were always appreciated.Finally, I would like to dedicate my thesis in loving memory of my grandfather, Stephen Edmund Graham, Jr., who died early in2006 while I was still absorbed with my research and writing.Although I am only a small part of his legacy,I am honored to continue life's journey with him in my blood, in my memory and in my heart.I owe a
