- Description
- Psychoanalytic analysis of ManT as "an example of a narrator's strenuously repressing the maternal yet subliminally negotiating its inevitable return." Various features of the Tale are projections of infantile "primal" relations with the mother: "sensorimotor disorder, oral consumption, human aggression, language, and the demonized feminine."
