영문 초록

The purpose of this study is to examine Scobie s divided self in The Heart of the Matter. In most of Graham Green s novels, the protagonist s self is surrounded by internal and external conflicts. In Greene s fiction, the battles fought within the self mirror external conflict. Internal conflict is the source of responsibility which divides the self. In Chapter Ⅰ, I will explore the region of the divided self. The self traverses the axis which lies between the religious and the secular. On this axis lies the region of the divided self. In Chapter Ⅱ, I will explain Green s position of the self. I will outline and contrast the concepts of the self proposed by catholic apologists, Søren Kierkegaard, and Albert Camus. In Chapter Ⅲ, I will apply three concepts of the self to The Heart of the Matter. I will analyze the causes and effects of the divided self in The Heart of the Matter and means by which the divided self becomes the precondition for the possible movement to the self-hood. I examine the disjunction between Scobie s avowed credo and his actions. Scobie s self is essentially solipsistic. In Chapter Ⅳ, I will examine the way in which Green s protagonist attains selfhood. Scobie fails to attain selfhood. He succumbs to despair. The attainment of selfhood is premised mainly on the self s persistent striving to become more human, and also on the self s growing ability to recognize and increase its subjectivity, its truth of what it is, and what it has become.
