碩士 === 靜宜大學 === 台灣文學系 === 101 === In this thesis, the author discussed Kuo Songfen's novels“The Running Mother”,“About Writing”, and“Starry Night”based on Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis as well as the doctor-patient relationship raised by Sigmund Freud. The author applied the doctor-patient relationship of psychoanalysis for analyzing key factors affecting the mental problem of the main character of “The Running Mother”.When discussing the doctor-patient relationship in“About Writing”, the author sorted out the external environment as well as the lack of ego and passion experienced by the main character during the creating process. The relationship between the image of art creation and media was probed in the thesis, too. The author considered that novels are used by Kuo as a tool for exploring the possibility of disseminating the image created by him via media so people can understand his creative view. As for“Starry Night”, the author used historical materials as the foundation for defining the genre of contexts with genre classification controversy. The author also tried to uncover the reasons why Kuo purposively illustrate the mind and thoughts of the main character in such details. Another attempt of the author was to reveal implications from the use of techniques of the stream of consciousness by Kuo.
