초록
This study focuses on the libido theory-based narcissism of Sigmund Freud in “The Legacy” written by Virginia Woolf. “The Legacy” is the story of quite a successful politician, Gilbert, who is a self-centered man, unable to concentrate his attention on anyone but himself. There are some reasons to prove he is possessed by narcissism like this. He considers his wife to be his dependency rather than an independent one, being always inferior in intelligence to him. As a narcissist, Gilbert defines others by his own standards. He thinks Sissy Miller, who has always lived as a family helping his wife with her work, is just one of many kind, dull, and small women. He even decides that the B. M. in his wife's diary is a spineless man who talks his opinions among women and has never done honest things during the day. Furthermore, he lives in a world of his own megalomania. His world is so full of distorted reality that it is impossible for him to communicate with others. Even when his wife takes one step forward in her journey to find herself, he is completely unaware of it and only thinks of himself. After all, in his world, where she is only asked for service under the name of wife, Angela chooses death. Her death is believed to give Gilbert a chance to look back on his life and re-establish a relationship with others.
