Abstract

“Knocking On Heaven's Door” is a song by Bob Dylan written in 1973. This song is unique because it was created after Dylan's mysterious accident in 1966 and that accident put him on hiatus for some time. After returning, there were changes in his works; so the researcher thought there were things related to Dylan's psychological side. This research used the psychoanalytic theory proposed by Jacques Lacan. In analyzing the lyrics of “Knocking On Heaven's Door”, the researcher finds that Bob Dylan as the lyricist is a subject of lack and that lack brings the desire to him. Dylan has a desire for self-authenticity. Thus, it can be concluded that the lyrics of “Knocking On Heaven's Door” are metaphors and metonyms from Bob Dylan's life. Keywords: song lyric, lacan, bob dylan, desire, 'I'.

Abstract

Mental health and trauma now dominate social discourse as well as contemporary cinema, reflecting a growing collective awareness of post-war historical wounds. This study examines the representation of J. Robert Oppenheimer’s traumatic experiences in the film Oppenheimer (2023) and assesses how that cinematic narrative aligns with selected biographical records. The analysis draws on Cathy Caruth’s concepts of belatedness and repetition compulsion and is complemented by Dominick LaCapra’s distinction between acting out and working through. Using a biographical approach, trauma-related moments identified in the film script are juxtaposed with historical documents in Robert Oppenheimer, Letters and Recollections. The findings identify 59 trauma-related instances: 32 cases (54%) reflect acting out, while 27 cases (46%) reflect working through. In the film, trauma is primarily conveyed through psychological disturbances and the intrusion of subconscious memories. In contrast, the biographical documents portray a more structured and sustained pattern of reconciliation, in which working through appears more dominant.
