초록
This paper examines the ways in which the lawyer-narrator appropriates both Bartleby, a scrivener he employs in his office, and himself, a bourgeois capitalist with a strong belief in the Christian principle of pre- determination. Recent criticism of “Bartleby, the Scrivener,” has focused attention on either the potentialities of Bartleby’s passive resistance, “I would prefer not to,” in constructing a new order of social community, or the lawyer-narrator’s self- indulgent story-telling which aggravates the condition of Bartleby as an alienated worker. Borrowing Rahel Jaeggi’s conception of alienation and appropriation, this essay sheds light on the mode of the lawyer-narrator’s restricted and rigid role appropriation in which he fails to become the authentic and genuine self who could truly sympathize with and actively engage in the plight of Bartleby.
Abstract
This paper examines the ways in which the lawyer-narrator appropriates both Bartleby, a scrivener he employs in his office, and himself, a bourgeois capitalist with a strong belief in the Christian principle of pre- determination. Recent criticism of “Bartleby, the Scrivener,” has focused attention on either the potentialities of Bartleby’s passive resistance, “I would prefer not to,” in constructing a new order of social community, or the lawyer-narrator’s self- indulgent story-telling which aggravates the condition of Bartleby as an alienated worker. Borrowing Rahel Jaeggi’s conception of alienation and appropriation, this essay sheds light on the mode of the lawyer-narrator’s restricted and rigid role appropriation in which he fails to become the authentic and genuine self who could truly sympathize with and actively engage in the plight of Bartleby.
