Paper Title
Trauma, Silence, and Psychological Fragmentation in Han Kang's The Vegetarian
Authors
Roopali Gupta
Keywords
Trauma, Oppression, Vegetal, Silence
Abstract
Korean Novelist Han Kang has redefined the literary space with her visceral portrayal of trauma, silence, identity, and patriarchy in her award-winning novel The Vegetarian. This paper examines how Kang's heroine Yeong-hye reacts to emotional trauma by withdrawing from society and choosing to become 'vegetal' as a radical form of resistance to patriarchal oppression and control. The narrative follows the inevitable disintegration of Yeong-hye's personality as she continues to internalise her trauma until one day something in her changes irrevocably and she begins to use her body as an instrument of silent but irrepressible rebellion. This paper argues that her withdrawal from meat and later on even speech can be linked to trauma theory, isolation, as well as a lack of empathy from those closest to her. Yeong-hye thus emerges as a victim of societal violence and patriarchal hegemony.
