초록
Žižek Slavoj’s theory of fantasy, based on psychoanalysis, in pursuit of cure, convincingly illuminates how and why Gerald Vizenor presents fantasies, continually traversing them, in The Everlasting Sky. The analysis by applying Žižek’s three major concepts distinctly exposes the significance of Vizenor’s use of fantasies in his text: “the excessive fixation on an empty signifier,” “the excess of ‘exaggeration’ to undermine the falsity of the balanced totality,” and "the cure by penetrating through symptoms to the fundamental fantasy.” In this paper, I will investigate how Vizenor visualizes the fantasy formation and subversion, excessively exaggerates certain fantasies, and plays with the fundamental fantasy in The Everlasting Sky. In the light of Žižek’s theory will clearly emerge Vizenor’s aim to portray the existing images of America and American Natives as signs excessively fixed on empty signifier. By showing and traversing the fundamental fantasy fixed on traumas of American history, it will be disclosed, Vizenor attempts to liberate and cure his readers from the plague of existing fantasies.
Abstract
Žižek Slavoj’s theory of fantasy, based on psychoanalysis, in pursuit of cure, convincingly illuminates how and why Gerald Vizenor presents fantasies, continually traversing them, in The Everlasting Sky. The analysis by applying Žižek’s three major concepts distinctly exposes the significance of Vizenor’s use of fantasies in his text: “the excessive fixation on an empty signifier,” “the excess of ‘exaggeration’ to undermine the falsity of the balanced totality,” and "the cure by penetrating through symptoms to the fundamental fantasy.” In this paper, I will investigate how Vizenor visualizes the fantasy formation and subversion, excessively exaggerates certain fantasies, and plays with the fundamental fantasy in The Everlasting Sky. In the light of Žižek’s theory will clearly emerge Vizenor’s aim to portray the existing images of America and American Natives as signs excessively fixed on empty signifier. By showing and traversing the fundamental fantasy fixed on traumas of American history, it will be disclosed, Vizenor attempts to liberate and cure his readers from the plague of existing fantasies.
