内容記述 | Virginia Woolf ’s first novel, The Voyage Out [VO] (1915) portrays binary oppositional worlds. Those are depicted as an exoticised world and the civilised world, which are reflected in the world of the ‘unconscious’ or madness and that of the ‘conscious’ or rationality, while presenting the rite of passage of the protagonist, Rachel Vinrace. This paper thematically discuss the dissolution of Rachel’s psychical world in the context of psychical and social structures that encompass the aforementioned binary oppositions. The argument in this paper refers to the Freudian developmental model--the inter-relation of the development of the individual and that of the civilised society. According to Freud, the prehistoric memories of the Freudian unconscious, like an uncivilized culture, are hidden but discovered in the process of the transition to maturity as something that dominates the present status of the civilised mind. This discovery is attached to that of the new world--the territories colonised by Europe. The analysis in this paper focuses on the analogous structure in both VO and Freudian theories regarding the unconscious and civilisation provided that the same problem of modernistic thought prevails in both: that is, the implication or the presupposition of psychical depth as a world under the conscious, the sane, or the civilised world. The Freudian self is the representation or the reflection of the European-centred geographical structure, which contains the subject of civilisation and the object to be civilised. The same structure can be found in the imaginative geography of Orientalism. The distinction between civilisation and barbarism, though imaginative and arbitrary, functions as the device of domination in empire politics. The unconscious as a culturally repressed site is compared to the sexuality that Rachel comes across, where the image of sexuality for Rachel is something that she hates and refuses to perceive. The story links Rachel’s voyage and her stay in a foreign country, a colonial space for the English, with the possibility of the awakening of her sexuality. Rachel’s psychical innermost space, however, is neither the territory of barbarism nor that of sexuality. It refuses to enter the symbolic stage; thus the impossibility of interpretation remains. Rachel’s death at the end of the novel is an extension of her isolation, which begins in the first half of the novel. This inwardness, being different from the site of the Freudian human ancient memory of the unconscious, is presented as Rachel’s disposition, as something neutral that refuses interpretation. In this sense, this novel denies the Freudian metaphor of the unconscious and civilisation. Rachel’s silence is a breaking up of a woman’s imagination, which is never judged by the repetition compulsion of the laws or regulations of the male-dominant society. Simultaneously, in this first novel, Woolf begins to explore the verbalisation of silence or inwardness, which had been repressed in the patriarchal society. The language of internality, which might as well be interpreted as the language of madness in Freud’s theory, has its own ‘raison d’être’ as an expression of a layer of the human psyche in reality. VO ’s significance lies in its description of female sexuality, which had not been interpreted fully in Freud’s theory. | |||||||||
