Abstract:
Ce mémoire de maîtrise propose une étude détaillée des répercussions sociales et psychologiques des évènements traumatiques sur le développement de l’enfant en utilisant trois Bildungsromane importants, The Catcher in the Rye de J.D. Salinger, The Outsiders de S.E. Hinton et The Perks of Being a Wallflower de Stephen Chbosky. En me basant sur les études de Cathy Caruth, Shoshana Felman, Ronald Granofsky, Dominick LaCapra, Dori Laub et Judith Lewis Herman, je démontre que les expériences traumatiques ont des effets contradictoires, mais indissociables sur l’évolution psychologique de l’enfant, à savoir de ralentir et d’accélérer le passage de l’enfance au monde adulte. J’explique que Holden Caulfield, Ponyboy Curtis et Charlie font preuve de comportements qui dévoilent la paralysie que peuvent entraîner les traumatismes psychologiques et qui peut forcer l’enfant à demeurer immature et innocent. Ensuite, j’illustre que ces mêmes expériences traumatiques, et l’acceptation de celles-ci peuvent finir par pousser l’enfant à brusquement atteindre la maturité. Ce mémoire souligne également l’importance du témoignage dans la guérison et dans l’éventuel passage de l’enfance à l’âge adulte. Considérant son omniprésence dans les romans pour jeunes adultes, le témoignage et ses ramifications seront analysés dans chaque chapitre. Au fil des trois chapitres, j’analyse chaque roman de façon indépendante, j’évalue la réaction de chaque personnage face aux expériences traumatiques et j’établis la nomenclature et les liens qui permettent une conversation entre les trois romans. Bien que les trois œuvres étudiées proposent différents modèles de réponses psychologiques aux traumatismes, chaque roman entre en dialogue avec l’autre. L’objectif de ce mémoire est donc d’offrir de nouvelles perspectives sur les trois histoires, tout en démontrant les corrélations qui les unissent et qui contribuent à la compréhension de chaque œuvre. Ainsi, ce mémoire se veut un outil pour établir une conception globale du rôle des expériences traumatiques dans la littérature pour jeunes lecteurs.
This thesis examines the psychological and social repercussions of trauma on a child’s maturation process using three landmark novels of the Bildungsroman genre, J.D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye, S.E. Hinton’s The Outsiders, and Stephen Chbosky’s The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Grounding my analysis on the findings of trauma theorists Cathy Caruth, Shoshana Felman, Ronald Granofsky, and Dominick LaCapra, and psychiatrists Dori Laub and Judith Lewis Herman, I demonstrate that trauma can occupy two contradictory but inextricably linked functions in the maturation process, that of both hindering and catalyzing a child’s coming-of-age. I demonstrate that Holden Caulfield, Ponyboy Curtis, and Charlie all display behaviours that suggest the paralyzing nature of trauma and its initial ability to prevent the child from growing up. I then argue that trauma, or the acceptance of one’s traumatic past, has the potential to accelerate the maturation process. My study also highlights the importance of the testimonial process in the recovery from trauma and the character's ensuing maturity. Because of the omnipresence of testimony in young people’s literature, its ramifications and implications are explored in each chapter of this thesis. Through the use of close reading, I study each work independently, evaluate each character’s individual response to trauma, and establish the thematic vocabulary and the interlinks that allow a conversation between the three novels. Although the studied works propose different types of traumatic negotiation and response, each novel is dialogically linked with the other. This thesis offers new readings of each novel, while establishing insightful comparisons between the three works. The intent of this thesis is therefore to contribute to the assessment of each narrative and to a general understanding of the role of trauma in young people’s literature.
