Sažetak
The work deals with the narrative identity of the protagonist of novella Ecce homo based on textual and other mechanisms used to modify his character. What triggers off the discovery of his I is the relationship with the Other so that his identity is torn between two poles: half Mother and half Woman. It is within that struggle between the responsibility towards his mother and the sexual drive towards the woman that his I struggles and gets divided into two spheres: the sphere of the son and the sphere of the man. Using such qualifications and functions, the text drives him by means of psychic and physical relationships from the mother as the castration (impotent) object to the woman as the sexual (potent) object and this inner conflict that cannot be resolved leaves him torn apart until the very end. Therefore, the aim of this work is to research the textual and other indicators that the story uses to construct the narrative identity of Mijo, marked by the title of the novella which points to the inevitable division and (his own or his mother’s) death.
