Mirror, Text and the Symbolic Matrix - Writing the Hero in The Picture of Dorian Gray

This is a thesis on the "creation" issue in Oscar
Wilde''s only novel through a Lacanian perspective.
In addtion to being a decadent manifesto, "The
Picture of Dorian Gray" has generally been regarded
as a certain kind of bildungsroman by critics, in
which what is created is not only the magical
painting but the hero as well.
"Mirror, Text and the Symbolic Matrix." By
suggesting these three interlocking axes, the author
seeks to outline the process of creation/writing
that governs the novel. By analyzing the complex
work of texts and the interplay of influences, the
thesis seeks to disclose the creation issue in this
famous work of Wilde''s.
