The Struggles to Overcome Traumatic Deviant Sexual Abuses as Starkly Portrayed in “Funeral Rites” by Jack Dickson
Abstract
The short story titled "Funeral Rites" is about deviant sexual activity in the form of forced incest in several underage victims. This study analyzed the deviant forms of sexual abuse, devastating trauma, and unique solutions for letting go of the trauma. This study uses Sigmund Frued’s theory of literary and psychosexual psychology. The research method used is qualitative, and the results are descriptive. The concepts used to support the analysis are the definitions of incest, pedophilia, bisexuality, homosexuality, and other related issues. The results show that there were sexual deviations, such as incest-pedophilia-heterosexual rapes and incest-pedophilia-homosexual rapes performed repeatedly by the same predator, the older person, who should protect and care for young victims. Leave devastating and haunting trauma to the under-age victim. The eldest victim finally finds a unique solution to reduce the traumatic effects that they have endured for years.
