Abstract

In this article, I present both clinical and personal examples of how “meeting the face of the Other” can enable us to transform our own personal narratives. I utilize Kohut’s notion that we may transform our personal existence to a supra-individual participation in the world, Kulka’s conceptualization of Kohut’s idealized selfobject as the agent for transformation, and Levinas’ ethical stance of responsibility for the Other, as the theoretical underpinnings for my article. Finally, I offer a literary analysis of a Biblical text that demonstrates this transformative potential on a global level.
转变和遇见他者的脸
在这篇文章中,我列举了一些临床和个人的例子,来说明“面对他人”是如何让我们改变自己的个人叙述的。我利用科胡特的观点,即我们可以将我们的个人存在转变为对世界的超个人参与,库尔卡将科胡特理想化的自我客体概念化为转化的代理,以及列维纳斯对他者负责的伦理立场,作为我文章的理论基础。最后,我提供了一个圣经文本的文学分析,在全球范围内展示了这种变革的潜力。
