Abstract

Under the interaction of space and power, characters in The Cement Garden are subject to the double restriction of the above-ground and underground spaces in their home, resulting in confused identity cognition, which leads to the characters’ incestuous behavior. From the perspective of power space, this paper explores the negative impact of family dysfunction on the soul and body of characters, as well as the initiative and necessity of individuals to develop a clear personal identity recognition through interaction with social space.
