The Trauma of Time in Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale and Winterson’s The Gap of Time

Öz

William Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale and its rewriting in the novel form by Jeanette Winterson both handle the concept of time traumatically. In the play, the traumatic events culminating into tragedy is linked to the second part of the play, after an interval of 16 years, with the help of the emblematic character “Time” that winds the play towards a seemingly happy ending. In the novel, on the other hand, the narrator takes up the role of Time and changes the setting in time and space. The change in temporality not only disrupts the flow of time signifying trauma, but also leads way to an otherwise impossible reconciliation entailing the trauma of forced compromise without a proper denouement. Trauma is attempted to be treated in Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale through miracle and forgiveness and in Winterson’s novel through forgiveness and in the belief that the next generation will not make the same mistakes as the old one. This paper evaluates the trauma of the gap of time in these two works through Cathy Caruth’s theory on the effects of forgetting the past trauma and Thomas de Quincey’s concept of being carried to the normal flow of time in Shakespearean dramatic action.
