Lịch sử tiếp nhận lý thuyết Phân tâm học trong nghiên cứu văn học Việt Nam

Abstract

Psychoanalytic theory came into existence in late 19th and early 20th century, and had a strong influence on humans’ mind history; it backed literary genres to “expose” humans’ inner world of nature, exploring the deepest in the human heart. In Vietnam, in early 20th century, writers, researchers and literary critics took in and applied this theory in literature research. Although sometimes not taken seriously, it has justified its role, position and value through time and the reader’s lenses to survive and create values, contributing importantly to the formation and development of modern Vietnam literature.
