A sizable part is also devoted to illustrate the specificity of traumas triggered by significant others. Whereas the survivors' psychic allegiance to the initiators of traumas may hinder their process of recovery, without recovery survivors may inadvertently transmit the traumas to the next generation through their problematic modes of relating. Successful recovery thus depends on the generation of a flexible narrative, together with the fostering of some enriching relationships. / Furthermore, it is shown that both relationships and narratives are like double-edged swords that the trauma survivors can 'use' beneficially or harmfully. Besides emphasizing the efficacy of utilizing narratives to assist a person to overcome his or her relational traumas, the present work simultaneously indicates the limits of narratives, particularly when an individual constructs a depleting rather than a life-enhancing narrative. The present work argues that the presence of a caring other or a welcoming context is indispensable to the annulment of negative impacts brought about by the formation of an inflexible narrative. / Integral to this dissertation are three theoretical assumptions. First, the present work posits a model of relational self, which is in contradistinction to the established autonomous model of self. It asserts that humans' susceptibility to the influences of others is clearly manifested in relational traumas. Finally, the present work also attests to the constructed nature of human realities, maintaining that a person's feeling is predicated on how he or she construes and interprets the world. Recovery from relational traumas thus depends on a person's ability to construct an alternative interpretation of the past traumas facilitated by the act of narrating the traumatic memory. / This dissertation explores the interrelationship of relationality, traumas and narratives in contemporary writings produced by overseas writers of Chinese ethnicity. As the first book-length study to adopt such an interdisciplinary approach---blending contemporary research and theories on narrative studies, psychology and psychotherapies with literary studies---to examine this group of literary works, this dissertation intends to extend the frontier of current scholarship associated with Chinese diasporic writings, which have frequently been overwhelmed by discussions on the socio-political level. / Young Ada. / "August 2005." / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 67-07, Section: A, page: 2575. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2005. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 212-221). / Electronic reproduction.

 The thesis deals with the concept of feminine sublimation among Chinese feminist writings and theory. Previous feminist readings of literary works of Chinese female writers tended to confuse the Freudian concept of sublimation with “aestheticized politics” and utopian desire. These feminist readings have concentrated on articulating an authentic subject beyond power relations. I would however, redefine the concept of feminine sublimation as a theoretical trope to articulate the possible emergence of female subjectivity within specific power relations. Although gender performativity has become a universally circulated concept to theorize the subversive depiction of female bodies in particular cultural contexts, I argue that any performative reiteration would not be adequately contextualized and historicized when its usage ignores issues of female subjectivity in terms of sublimation. Chapter one of the thesis begins with various feminist approaches to the relationship of sublimation and performativity. Chapter two re-reads a novel Song of Youth in the socialist era. The conventional conception of sublimation is re-examined contextually in a way that the consideration of gender performativity alone would not be able to do. Through reading a canonical work of the “nationalist feminist” writer Xiao Hong, chapter three delineates the relation between my redefined concept of feminine sublimation and the possibility of political coalition, and explains how this relation provides a totally different understanding of performative reiteration. I would finally redefines the fundamental relationship between feminist subjectivity and performative politics. / published_or_final_version / Comparative Literature / Master / Master of Philosophy
