European literature contains fictional descriptions of self-harm and self-punishment over a time span of almost 2 500 years. This article presents such descriptions, from Sofocles' tragedy about King Oedipus to contemporary literature. Particular interest is dedicated to the Austrian Nobel prize laureate Elfriede Jelinek and the Norwegian author Karl Ove Knausgård. In Jelinek's fictional universe, self-harm is particularly related to the topic of autonomy in a family context; while Knausgård describes the role of shame in triggering and sustaining self-harming behaviour.
在近2500年的时间跨度里,欧洲文学作品中存在对自我伤害和自我惩罚的虚构描写。本文呈现了这些描写,从索福克勒斯关于俄狄浦斯王的悲剧到当代文学。特别关注的是奥地利诺贝尔奖获得者埃尔弗里德·耶利内克和挪威作家卡尔·奥韦·克瑙斯高。在耶利内克的虚构世界中,自我伤害尤其与家庭背景下的自主性话题相关;而克瑙斯高则描述了羞耻感在引发和维持自我伤害行为中所起的作用。
