As part of a graduate seminar on J. M. Coetzee’s work, I am posting my seminar paper on the treatment of rape and feminine silence in Disgrace on this blog. I also touch on representations of rape, torture, and silence in In the Heart of the Country, Waiting for the Barbarians, and Elizabeth Costello.
The link for the essay is at the top of the page just above the title bar. Please click on “Seminar Paper: Cutting Out Their Tongues” for a linked table of contents and some additional relevant links and resources. Thank you for reading.
I also wanted to thank my seminar colleagues Daniel Linton and Ligia Lesko for their feedback on a draft of this paper.
