Memory and Self in Kazuo Ishiguro's Fiction / GHARIRI, Assil
Titre : Memory and Self in Kazuo Ishiguro's Fiction Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : GHARIRI, Assil, Auteur ; HADJOUI, Ghouti, Auteur Editeur : Univ tlemcen Année de publication : 2022 Importance : 227 p. Présentation : ill. Format : 30 cm Accompagnement : cd Langues : Français (moyen) (frm) Résumé : Memory is the sum of what human beings recollect. It is the process with which they are able to learn from past experiences and to fabricate connections. Memory is a storehouse of learned and retained things from our activities and experiences. On the other hand, the self is an overall term used to allude to how people ponder, assess or see themselves. To know oneself is to have a sense of self. This thesis studies the process of rewriting the self through memory in Kazuo Ishiguro’s novels, The Remains of the Day (1989), The Unconsoled (1995), and The Buried Giant (2016). It argues that the presence or the absence of memory has a great impact on rewriting the self. It shows how the protagonists of the three novels take a journey through the unconscious in search of their real selves and seek, so, the help of their memories. The thesis uses a combination of Carl Jung’s theory of individuation, concentrating mainly on the idea of archetypes, and Mark Freeman’s theory of rewriting the self. It illustrates how the protagonists can find all the archetypes that construct their selves while following Freeman’s stages of rewriting the self. The memory, in this thesis, is discussed both as one of the great abilities of mind, without which people’s lives will become tremendous chaos and the reality of their selves would eternally remain lost and as a detrimental weapon the wrong use of which can damage the sense of self.
