“Impressions and Transformations: A Psychoanalytic Study of the Effects of Early Linguistic Disruptions, Emotional Trauma, and of Testimony through the Study of Oscar Hijuelos’ Thoughts without Cigarettes” takes an ontological approach to the landscape of a lived language. Through an in-depth study of Oscar Hijuelos’ memoir I examine how a primary language promotes the emergence of the speaking subject. I look into the manner in which individual and shared histories interact with speakers’ perceptions, ongoing relations and dialogical conceptions within a culture. Through the research of semiotic, language philosophy, and psychoanalytic theories I study the ways in which speakers’ social, cognitive and emotional worlds are made from the fluid worlds of others and examine language’s core implication with such relation.
