Kehl M.-R. Resentiment

Kehl M.-R. Resentiment

Author Kehl M.-R.
Title Resentiment
Description Maria Rita Kehl is a Brazilian psychoanalyst, journalist, and literary critic. In this work, the author addresses a complex of affects characteristic of modernity: resentment. How does resentment arise, and what are the consequences of this reaction for the subject? It is far from being a simple "resentment," and its manifestations are not limited to the individual's personal experiences. Developing the approaches of Nietzsche and Freud and working at the intersection of several disciplines and perspectives, Kehl analyzes resentment as a social phenomenon, dissecting its representations in fiction (for example, in Shakespeare and Dostoevsky) and political life. The author seeks to understand how the subject can escape the passive — and often pervasive — position of resentment, in which they chronically lack responsibility for their own actions.
