SOCIAL RESEARCH OF BODY PERCEPTION AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE IN SPLIT
No full textPercepcija tijela je multidimenzionalan koncept koji obuhvaća kako se vlastito tijelo doživljava, koje su misli uz njega asocirane i osjećaje vezane uz njega. On je isto tako i subjektivan, ovisi od pojedinca do pojedinca kako percipira vlastito tijelo ovisno o osobnim iskustvima i utjecajima. Također je i dinamična, svakodnevno sklona promjeni. Ta promjena može biti povezana bilo kojim utjecajem kojeg pojedinac može smatrati relevantnim i isto tako kakvu mu poruku taj utjecaj šalje, ili pak neizbježna promjena prelaskom iz mlade u zrelu dob. Društvene mreže trenutno imaju primat nad utjecajem skupine mladih i kako oni percipiraju vlastito tijelo.
Ovo istraživanje provedeno je u ožujku 2024. godine na prigodnom uzorku 218 mladih u Splitu. U cilju je imalo ispitati percepcije tijela mladih; smatraju li tjelesni izgled važnim, jesu li zadovoljni svojim izgledom i što smatraju najvećim utjecajem na svoju percepciju. Mladi u Splitu koji su sudjelovali u ovom istraživanju smatraju tjelesni izgled važnim, te su njime donekle zadovoljni. Kako bi poboljšali svoj osjećaj zadovoljstva najčešće se bave nekim oblikom fizičke aktivnosti. Iako se pokazalo da se mladi u Splitu slažu da društvene mreže nameću idealizirane standarde koji nisu realni, ipak najviše utjecaja imaju na njih. Također, uočene su razlike između žena i muškaraca kod zadovoljstva tijelom, pribjegavanju aktivnostima kako bi poboljšali svoj fizički izgled i kod utjecaja društvenih mreža. Statistički test je pokazao da su žene manje zadovoljne svojim tjelesnim izgledom, da češće pribjegavaju aktivnostima kako bi ga poboljšale i da su više pod utjecajem društvenih mreža od muškaraca.Body perception is a multidimensional concept that includes how one`s own body is percived, what thoughts are associated with it and feeling related to it. It is also subjective, it depends on the individual, how he perceives his own body depending on personal experiences and influences. It is also dynamic, prone to change every day. This change can be related to any influence that an individual can consider relevant and also what message that influence sends to him, or an inevitable change due to the transition from youth to adulthood. Social media currently have primacy over the influence of a group of young people and how they percive their own body.
This research was conducted in March 2024 on a convenient sample of 218 young people in Split. The aim was to examine the body perceptions of young people; whether they consider physical appearance important, whether they are satisfied with their appearance and what they consider to have the greatest influence on their perception. Young people in Split who participated in this research consider physical appereance to be important, and are somewhat satisfied with it. In order to improve their sense of satisfaction, they usually engage in some form of physical activity. Although it turned out that young people in Split agree that social media impose idealized standards that are not realistic, they still have the most influence on them. Also, gender differences were observed in body satisfaction, in resorting to activities to improve one`s physical appearance, and in the influence of social media. Statistical test conducted showed that women are less satistied with their physical appearance, that they more often resort to activities to improve it and that they are more influenced by social media than man
CONTEMPORARY FUNCTIONS OF PRESCHOOL TEACHER AND A PROJECT APPROACH TO THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS IN KINDERGARTEN
No full textProjektni pristup u radu s djecom rane i predškolske dobi ima korijene iz početka prošlog stoljeća kada se ukazalo na važnost učenja temeljenog na znatiželji, interesu i iskustvu. Projektni rad je dugogodišnje implementiran u odgojne ustanove za djecu rane i predškolske dobi. Projektni pristup se bazire na istraživanjima, postavljanju pitanja i tijeku rješavanja problema iz stvarnog svijeta. Temelj projektnog pristupa je uključenost djece u istraživanja kojim se uče vještine iz svakodnevnog života, a ujedno se i odvija motivacija za samostalnim radom i otkrivanjem rješenja. Projektni rad može uključivati sudjelovanje odgajatelja koji proučava interes i tijek rada s djecom. Projektni rad je sklon fleksibilnom mijenjanju vremena završetka, promjeni metoda i dinamike interakcije. Teži postizanju ljubavi za cjeloživotno učenje i samostalnost u obavljanju zadataka. Projektni pristup doprinosi razvoju mašte, kreativnosti i komunikacije prilikom rada u grupi. Djeca razvijaju kritičko razmišljanje, vještine rješavanja problema i donošenja odluka dok rade na projektima koji od njih zahtijevaju prikupljanje informacija, analizu podataka i predstavljanje svojih nalaza. Praktična, istraživačka priroda projektnog rada također podržava razvoj fine motorike, kreativnosti i društvenih vještina. Radom u grupama djeca uče surađivati, komunicirati i uvažavati različita stajališta.The project approach in working with children of early and preschool age has its roots in the beginning of the last century, when the importance of learning based on curiosity, interest and experience was pointed out. Project work has been implemented for many years in educational institutions for children of early and preschool age. The project approach is based on research, questioning and the process of solving real-world problems. The basis of the project approach is the involvement of children in research, which teaches them skills from everyday life, and at the same time motivates them to work independently and discover solutions. Project work can include the participation of educators who study the interest and flow of work with children. Project work is prone to flexibly changing completion times, changing methods and dynamics of interaction. It strives to achieve love for lifelong learning and independence in performing tasks. The project approach contributes to the development of imagination, creativity and communication when working in a group. Children develop critical thinking, problem-solving and decision-making skills as they work on projects that require them to gather information, analyze data and present their findings. The practical, exploratory nature of project work also supports the development of fine motor skills, creativity and social skills. By working in groups, children learn to cooperate, communicate and respect different points of view
THE ROLE OF ETHICAL SUBJECTIVISM IN DEBATES ABOUT GENDER IDENTITY
No full textRad sadrži prikaz uloge koju etički subjektivizam ima unutar rasprava o rodnom identitetu. Naime, u današnje vrijeme možemo primijetiti da se pojam rodnog identiteta često nalazi u središtu društvenih rasprava. Razlog tome je doživljaj rodnog identiteta kao nečeg fluidnog i subjektivnog koji se nametnuo među javnosti kao subverzivna tema na koju se vode brojne polemike. Iz ovog razloga uviđa se potreba za detaljnim prikazom suodnosa etičkog subjektivizma prilikom rodne identifikacije te tumačenjem temeljnih stavki koje čine rodni identitet.
Cilj ovog rada je izložiti točne definicije etičkog subjektivizma i rodnog identiteta te ulogu koju etički subjektivizam ima u definiranju roda koji se ispostavlja kao jedna od bitnih sastavnica rodnog identiteta. Nadalje, u radu su prikazana razna stajališta među kojima se posebno ističe da je definiranje roda kroz prizmu etičkog subjektivizma u izravnoj suprotnosti sa spolom koji je definiran i poduprt objektivnim čimbenicima. Posljedično, možemo opaziti da se rodni identitet sastoji od više elemenata i nužno je zapitati se o značaju njihova suodnosa i načinu na koji konstruiraju cjelokupni identitet neke osobe. Ujedno, treba istaknuti značaj ove teme zbog toga što se svojim sadržajem proteže na mnoge znanstvene i filozofske discipline među kojima možemo istaknuti lingvistiku, semantiku, metafiziku, logiku, sociologiju, medicinu, etc. S obzirom na to, može se donijeti zaključak da se uporaba etičkog subjektivizma prilikom rodne identifikacije pokazala kao tema koju treba proučiti uz dozu konstruktivnog kriticizma zbog utjecaja na osnove stjecanja spoznaje i temelje znanja koje imamo o sebi samima te stvarnosti u kojoj egzistiramo.This paper contains a thorough description of significant role that ethical subjectivism plays within gender discussions. Namely, we can notice that the concept of gender identity is nowadays often discussed at the middle of important social discussions. The main reason for this can be found within the perception of gender identity as something fluid and subjective which has enabled it to impose itself among the public as a subversive topic and a reason why numerous polemics are being conducted. This explains the need for a detailed analysis of the relationship between use of ethical subjectivism during gender identification and the interpretation of the fundamental items that make up gender identity.
The aim of this paper is to present the exact definitions of ethical subjectivism, gender identity, and the role which ethical subjectivism plays in defining gender, which turns out to be one of the essential components of gender identity. Moreover, this paper brings different opinions on the mentioned topic. The view which is particularly emphasized claims that defining gender, by using ethical subjectivism, is in the direct contrast with biological sex, which is defined and supported by objective factors. Consequently, we can see that the gender identity consists of several elements and that it is necessary to analyze the significance of their interrelationship and the way in which they construct the overall identity of a person. Furthermore, the importance of this topic should be emphasized because its content extends to many scientific and philosophical disciplines, among which we can highlight linguistics, semantics, metaphysics, logic, sociology, medicine, etc. With this in mind, it can be concluded that the use of ethical subjectivism during gender identification has proven to be a topic that should be studied with a dose of constructive criticism due to the way it impacts the way we acquire knowledge. As well as the foundations of knowledge we have about ourselves and the reality in which we exist
ULOGA FILOZOFIJE U CJELOŽIVOTNOM OBRAZOVANJU
No full textOvaj diplomski rad istražuje ulogu filozofije u cjeloživotnom obrazovanju. U prvom dijelu rada
opisuje se i objašnjava koncept cjeloživotnog obrazovanja te ga se uspoređuje s procesom
cjeloživotnog učenja, uvodeći i pojmove formalnog, neformalnog i informalnog obrazovanja.
Svrha te analize je postavljanje pozadine za promatranje uloge filozofije u tom cijelom procesu
koji počinje s Filozofijom s djecom pa se nastavlja kroz osnovnu i srednju školu te fakultet i
naposljetku završava s Filozofijom s odraslima i umirovljenicima. U svakoj od ovih 'faza', jedan
od glavnih ciljeva je razvijanje ili daljnji napredak kritičkog mišljenja te omogućavanje djeci,
učenicima, studentima, odraslima i umirovljenicima prostor u kojem mogu izraziti svoje
stavove na argumentiran način, potičući razmišljanje o filozofskim temama i na taj način ulazeći
u dubinu pojmova iz svijeta oko njih.
Drugi dio ovog rada fokusiran je na praktični dio, odnosno na dvije radionice koje su odrađene
na temu Prijateljstva. Prva radionica odrađena je s djecom, i cilj joj je bio poticanje kritičnog
mišljenja i iznošenje stavova o temama unutar pojma prijateljstva, na način da su kroz riječi
različitih filozofa i morskih likova ulazili u dubinu ove teme, pokušavajući shvatiti njenu svrhu.
Slično prvoj, druga radionica odrađena je s umirovljenicima na istu temu, ali se razlikovala po
tome što joj je cilj bio ponovno oživljavanje kritičkog mišljenja kroz igru definiranja pojma
prijateljstvo. Na ovaj način umirovljenici su navodili ključne pojmove koje vežu za prijateljstvo
te zajedno slagali definiciju koja bi na što precizniji i točniji način objasnila dubinu iza tog
pojma. Na kraju , ovaj rad je promatrao sličnosti i različitosti u pristupu djece i umirovljenika
prema samoj radionici i temi te navodi da su u svojoj suštini ti pristupi dosta slični jer su i jedna
i druga skupina željne otvorene diskusije i iznošenja svojih stavova i iskustava.This thesis examines the role of philosophy in lifelong education, tracing its evolution across
various educational settings. The initial section delineates the concept of lifelong education and
contrasts it with the process of lifelong learning. It introduces the notions of formal, informal,
and informal education. The objective of this analysis is to provide a contextual framework for
examining the role of philosophy in this comprehensive process, which commences with the
introduction of philosophical concepts to children, progresses through the curriculum of
primary and secondary schools, and culminates in the integration of philosophical principles in
the education of adults and retirees. In each of these "phases," one of the primary objectives is
to cultivate or further advance critical thinking and to provide children, pupils, students, adults,
and pensioners with a forum where they can express their views in an argumentative manner,
encouraging reflection on philosophical topics and thus delving into the nuances of concepts
from their immediate surroundings.
The second section of this paper is devoted to the practical aspects of the topic, namely two
workshops on the subject of friendship. The initial workshop was conducted with children and
aimed to cultivate critical thinking and present diverse perspectives on the concept of
friendship. To this end, the workshop utilized the words of various philosophers and sea
characters to delve deeply into the topic, striving to grasp its essence. Similarly, the second
workshop was conducted with retirees on the same topic, but differed in that its objective was
to stimulate critical thinking through a game of defining the term "friendship." In this manner,
the retirees articulated the fundamental concepts that underpin the concept of friendship and
collectively attempted to formulate a definition that would elucidate the essence of the term
with precision and accuracy. Finally, this paper observed the similarities and differences in the
approach of children and pensioners towards the workshop itself and the topic. It was found
that in essence these approaches are quite similar because both groups are eager to have an open
discussion and express their views and experiences
IZRADA DIGITALNIH IGARA U ALATU H5P NA TEMU PRAVILNA PREHRANA DJECE RANE I PREDŠKOLSKE DOBI
No full textOvaj rad istražuje upotrebu digitalnih igara u edukaciji, uz poseban naglasak na pravilnu
prehranu djece rane i predškolske dobi. Digitalne igre omogućuju interaktivno učenje i mogu
pomoći djeci da kroz igru usvoje zdrave prehrambene navike. Rad obuhvaća teorijski pregled
prednosti i nedostataka digitalnih igara u edukaciji. Razmatra ulogu odgojitelja i donosi analizu
pravilne prehrane, a prikazuje i primjere igara izrađenih u H5P te rezultati istraživanja provedenog
s djecom.
Digitalne igre mogu doprinijeti sedentarnom načinu života, što često vodi do loših
prehrambenih navika i povećanog rizika od pretilosti. Djeca koja puno vremena provode uz
digitalne igre sklona su konzumiranju nezdrave hrane, što negativno utječe na njihovo zdravlje.
Potrebno je razviti strategije koje će uravnotežiti vrijeme provedeno u igranju digitalnih igara s
tjelesnom aktivnošću i zdravom prehranom. Edukativne igre mogu doprinijeti poučavanju djece o
važnosti zdrave prehrane i redovite tjelesne aktivnosti, uz smanjenje negativnih utjecaja
prekomjernog vremena provedenog pred ekranom.This paper explores the use of digital games in education, with a particular focus on proper
nutrition for early and preschool-aged children. Digital games enable interactive learning and can
help children adopt healthy eating habits through play. The paper includes a theoretical review of
the advantages and disadvantages of digital games in education. It examines the role of educators
and provides an analysis of proper nutrition, showcasing examples of games created in H5P and
presenting the results of a study conducted with children.
Digital games can contribute to a sedentary lifestyle, often leading to poor eating habits
and an increased risk of obesity. Children who spend a lot of time playing digital games are prone
to consuming unhealthy food, which negatively impacts their health. It is necessary to develop
strategies that balance the time spent playing digital games with physical activity and healthy
eating. Educational games can aid in teaching children the importance of healthy nutrition and
regular physical activity while reducing the negative effects of excessive screen time
PATTERNS OF USE AND ATTITUDES TOWARDS STATISTICS IN PSYCHOLOGICAL PROFESSION: A CROSS SECTIONAL STUDY
No full textThis cross-sectional study investigated the patterns of use and attitudes towards statistics in the everyday work of licensed psychologists in Croatia and gathered their suggestions for improving statistics education in the field. This study aimed to examine if components of attitudes towards statistics predicted the use of statistics in psychologists’ work, as well as their suggestions for the improvement of statistical education within psychology programs. It hypothesized that practicing psychologists’ use of statistics will be predicted by their attitudes towards statistics and that they will suggest that practical application and user-friendly software would be beneficial for today's psychology students. An online survey was carried out from January to March of 2024. Participants were eligible if they had graduated in psychology, were members of the Croatian Psychological Chamber, and were working in any field of psychology. Invitations were sent using purposive and snowball sampling methods, targeting publicly available email addresses of psychological societies and associations, as well as social media groups that gather psychologists. Additionally, we went through the directory of all licensed psychologists in Croatia (N=3733), collected the publicly available email addresses, and sent the survey invitation to increase the response rate. We collected a wide range of data, and the variables collected could be divided into four categories: demographics, use and knowledge of statistics, recommendations and study experience, and attitudes toward statistics. To analyze the data obtained, we used descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression. We managed to collect a sample of 602 participants, out of which 17 were excluded and 406 completed the whole survey. Psychologists reported using statistics in 10% of their working time, mainly for research papers and data processing while 20% did not use statistics at all. The principal suggested improvements were implementing practical applications and user-friendly software. Additionally, our findings show that a greater perceived value of statistics, and more negative feelings towards statistics were associated with a greater percentage of working time dedicated to statistics use. Despite extensive training, psychologists in Croatia rarely use statistics in their professional work, highlighting the importance of incorporating statistical educational practices that are more linked with the actual work of psychologists. This study, the first to explore the views of Croatian graduated psychologists on the use of statistics in everyday work, provides insights that can inform the design of educational interventions in psychology programs, potentially leading to better alignment between education and professional practice in the psychological field
FEMINIST THEORY SIMONE DE BEAUVOIR
No full textKako smo mogli pročitati u ovom radu, feminizam je prošao dug i trnovit put kako bi se izborio za svoj cilj. Iako je borba za ženska prava i sam pokret feminizma pokrenut relativno nedavno, ženama je donio formalnu ravnopravnost. Podređenost žena društveni je konstrukt koji svoje korijene vuče od najprimitivnijeg doba te su zbog toga žene osjetile potrebu da se pobune na ustaljeni nepravedni normativ i krenu tražiti svoja prava, koja trebaju počivati na osnovnim ljudskim pravima koja vrijede za sve.
U svojoj knjizi Drugi spol, Simone de Beauvoir dala je prikaz i analizu žene od samog njezina rođenja sve do smrti, prikazavši je kao potpuno slobodnu i neovisnu individuu sa svim njenim biološkim i psihološkim obilježjima koja ni po čemu ne bi trebala biti omalovažena. Saznali smo značenje pojma 'Drugo' koji je iznimno značajan u teoriji de Beauvoir, ali i interesantan općenito. Osim ovog pojma, upoznali smo se i sa značajem Simone de Beauvoir u drugom valu feminizma te smo objasnili razliku između spola i roda. Feministička teorija Simone de Beauvoir zasigurno počiva na jasnom opisivanju i dokazivanju zašto ženska podređenost nije opravdana. Pokazala je i kako su žene jednako jake kao i muškarci, ali da se to boje pokazati jer su cijeli život bile ušutkivane. Možemo reći da je de Beauvoir uspjela u svom naumu da obrazuje društvo o razlozima ženske potlačenosti te da su njezina objašnjenja jasno utvrdila da je žena ljudsko biće koje je apsolutno vrijedno svih prava kao i muškarac.
Zaključaka u ovom radu ima nekoliko, međutim onaj glavni jest da je unatoč ustaljenim patrijarhalnim tradicijama koje postoje stoljećima i dalje nejasno što je dovelo do podređivanja žena. Je li to dolazak privatnog vlasništva? Biološke „slabosti“? Štogod bilo, jasno je da je krivo protumačeno i sprovedeno na štetu žena koje su se morale početi boriti za svoju emancipaciju kako bi danas uopće mogle imati prava na govor, obrazovanje i osnovne ljudske potrebe i ciljeve koje je tisućama godina diljem svijeta uživao samo muškarac
POETIKA HRVATSKIH PREDAJA I LEGENDI
No full textU ovom radu prikazana je poetika hrvatskih predaja i legendi koje su odredile povijest jednog naroda. Opisane su povijesne predaje koje uključuju hrvatske kraljeve/vladare narodne krvi kao i predaje tijekom osmanske okupacije (Pravo prve bračne noći, Danak u krvi). Važan dio hrvatskih predaja vezane su za uskoke i hajduke od kojih su najpoznatiji Petar Kružić, Andrijica Šimić i Ivan Bušić, poznatiji kao Roša harambaša. Od ostalih vrsta predaja u radu se ističu etiološke, demonološke, mitske i eshatološke. Ove predaje govore o različitim mitskim bićima, nastanku određenih imena i demonskim bićima. Na kraju samog rada spominju se i važne legende kao legenda o kralju sv. Vladimira i legenda o nastanku grada Paga.This paper presents the poetics of Croatian traditions and legends that determined the history of a nation. Historical traditions are described that include Croatian kings/rulers of national blood as well as traditions during the Ottoman occupation (The right of the first wedding night, Blood tribute). An important part of Croatian traditions are related to uskoks and hajduks, the most famous of whom are Petar Kružić, Andrijica Šimić and Ivan Bušić, better known as Roša harambaša. Among other types of traditions, etiological, demonological, mythical and eschatological ones stand out in the work. These traditions talk about different mythical beings, the origin of certain names and demonic beings. At the end of the work, important legends are mentioned, such as the legend of the king of St. Vladimir and the legend about the origin of the city of Pag
POETIKA PREDAJA I LEGENDI
No full textU završnom radu objašnjene su predaje i legende. Prve su povijesne predaje u kojima su izdvojene one o dolasku Hrvata na današnje prostore. Izdvojile su se i one koje govore o periodu osmanske okupacije u Hrvatskoj i Bosni i Hercegovini. U tom periodu javljaju se uskoci i hajduci od kojih su se najviše istakli Andrijica Šimić i Petar Kružić. Etiološke predaje su predaje kojima se objašnjava podrijetlo mjesta i prezimena, u ovome radu konkretno prezime Gotovac te mjesta Visovac i Neorić. Glavna tematika mitskih predaja su vile ili ljudi koji imaju nadnaravne moći. Objašnjeno je kako su prema vjerovanju nastale vile i osnovne informacije o njima, a zatim je pisano o Ladi i Ljelji koji su dio hrvatske tradicije i običaja. Demonološke predaje bave se pričama o susretu s vampirima, vukodlacima i vješticama. Eshatološke predaje govore o umrloj djeci ili ubijenim ljudima čije duše lutaju. Napisan je i primjer pričanja iz života, kratka priča humorističnog karaktera o beskućniku. Naposljetku govori se o legendama, njihovoj definiciji te je navedeno nekoliko primjera, prepričana je poznata priča o Gavanovim dvorima koja je napisana po uzoru na priču iz Biblije o Sodomi i Gomori, zatim se pisalo o svetoj Katarini i svetom Duji i slici Gospe Sinjske uz koju su vezana mnoga čudesa i koja se još uvijek slavi i poštuje.This undergraduate thesis explores folk tales and legends. The first stories to be analyzed are the historical narratives, focusing in particular on those concerning the arrival of the Croats to their current territories and the period of Ottoman occupation in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. During this historical period, the uskoks and hajduks emerged, with Andrijica Šimić and Petar Kružić being the most prominent figures. The etiological tales which were explored in this paper speak of the origins of places and surnames, specifically the Gotovac surname and the island of Visovac and the village Neorić. The central characters in the myths are fairies and people with supernatural abilities. These myths explain the origin of fairies and provides basic information about them. They are followed by the examination of tales about the Slavic goddess Lada and her son Ljela. Demonological folk tales delve into
encounters with vampires, werewolves, and witches. Eschatological stories center around deceased children or the wandering souls of the murdered. An example of an anecdote is also provided, a short humorous story about a homeless person. Finally, the paper discusses legends, their definition, and offers several examples, and a retelling of the famous story of Gavan and his Halls, which is based on the biblical story of Sodom and Gomorrah. The paper also touches on the stories of St. Catherine, St. Domnius, and the painting of Our Lady of Sinj, which is associated with many miracles and is still celebrated and revered
PSIHOANALITIČKA INTERPRETACIJA ROMANA ĐUKA BEGOVIĆ
No full textU ovom završnom radu analiziran je moderni roman Ivana Kozarca Đuka Begović primjenom prvenstveno Freudove metode psihoanalize. Usporedbom psihoanalitičkog pristupa Sigmunda Freuda i Ericha Fromma objašnjeni su neki od temeljnih pojmova psihoanalize, a posebno su izdvojeni termini poput: podvojenosti ličnosti i Edipovog kompleksa. U središtu istraživanja ovoga rada nalazi se glavni (anti)junak Đuka Begović čiji ćemo razvoj i propast ličnosti, potaknut neobuzdanim nagonima i nasljeđu „gnjile“ krvi oca, nastojati objasniti koristeći se metodom psihoanalize kao najprikladnijim izborom književne interpretacije romana.In this undergraduate thesis, the modern novel by Ivan Kozarac Đuka Begović was analyzed using primarily Freud's method of psychoanalysis. By comparing the psychoanalytic approach of Sigmund Freud and Erich Fromm, some of the basic concepts of psychoanalysis were explained and terms such as 'splitting' personality and the Oedipus complex were especially highlighted. At the center of this research is the main (anti)hero Đuka Begović, whose personality development and downfall, fueled by unbridled impulses and the inheritance of the "rotten" blood of his father, we will try to explain using the method of psychoanalysis as the most appropriate choice of literary interpretation of the novel
