초록
This study intends to discuss the process by which individual persecution and oppression based on a Jewish background in Bernard Malamud's The Fixer is extended to all modern problems. Malamud's The Fixer effectively presents the problem of injustice and persecution experienced by Jews based on actual events. The Jewish protagonist in The Fixer realizes that attempts to evade Jewish traditions and identities, which are not properly recognized in Russian society, are a situation in which they are imprisoned in a mental prison. Malamud extends the problem of isolation and alienation experienced by Jews to the problem of humanity as a whole. In conclusion, Malamud reminds readers that in situations of pain and oppression, rather than sinking into frustration and helplessness, they should realize the meaning and value of pain.
