ABSTRACT

This study pursuit topology of animal tales. We analyzed animal tales in the interest of this critical mind, worked up to find out human images in animals of these tales, and grasped the point of the process of human subjectivization these tales has in it. To this purpose, we focused our attention on 'gratitude of magpie' tale. We reached a tentative conclusion that animal tales reflect the process of human subjectivization. As a result, we could concept that topology of animal tales have a relation to the process of human subjectivization and use terminologies, for example 'equatable animal', 'verbal animal' and 'dying animal'. Through various animal tales, human have passed the three courses, what is called 'the imaginary', 'the symbolic' and 'the real'.(Jacques Lacan) Human can construct a subject through animal, in animal tales, and through animal tales, because animal is eternal mirror of human.
