Victimization in Margaret Atwood's The Blind Assassin
Tomanová, Michaela ; Topolovská, Tereza (advisor) ; Chalupský, Petr (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to explore the theme of victimization in Margaret Atwood's novel, The Blind Assassin. The theoretical part of the work presents two theories elaborating on this topic. The first Atwood outlined herself in Survival, her influential book about Canadian literature. The second one is Trauma and Recovery by Judith Herman, which highlights the role of post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of abuse, often in the victim's childhood. In the practical part, Atwood's widely acclaimed 2000 novel, The Blind Assassin, is interpreted through the prism of these two theories.
