Bog beskrivelse

This work offers an original interpretation of the mothers of the protagonists in Dickens''s autobiographical novels. Taking Julia Kristeva''s psychoanalytic concept of abjection and Mary Douglas''s anthropological analysis of pollution as its conceptual framework, the book argues that Dickens''s primary emotional response towards the mother who abandoned him to work in a blacking warehouse was disgust, and suggests that we can trace similar signs of disgust in the narrators of his fictional autobiographies, David Copperfield, Bleak House, and Great Expectations.

The author provides a close reading of Dickens''s autobiographical fragment and opens up the possibility that Dickens''s feelings towards his mother actually bore a significant influence on his fiction. The book closes with a provocative discussion of Dickens''s compulsive Sikes and Nancy public readings.
