The Function of Symptoms in British Literature since
Modernism looks at various ways of treating symptoms of
psychological disorders in the literature of the long twentieth
century. This book shows that literature can, in its questioning of
commonly accepted views of this lived experience of psychic
symptoms, help engender new theories about the functioning of
subjective cases. Modernism emerged at about the same time as
Freudian psychoanalysis did and the aim of this book is to also
show that to a certain extent, Woolf preceded Freud in her
exploration of the symptom and contributed to fashioning another
approach that is now more common, especially in writers from the
1990s-onwards.
