Publication Access status: Open Access , Porno in der Puppenstube. Allen Jones, Jann Haworth und das Narrativ der sexuellen Verfügbarkeit im KunstkontextDolls/puppets as anthropomorphic beings invite human beings to interact with them. If doll and human meet, the doll/puppet creates an incentive for action in the sense of a doll-specific affordance, which stimulates the inner-psychic interplay of identity and alterity in the human counterpart. In the paper it is argued that alterity is situationally inscribed in the doll/puppet as a psychological narrative: the doll is perceived as alter that correlates with an awareness of ego. It is an alterity offered by the doll with a performative potential for the human counterpart. The coincidence of alterity narrative (on the part of the doll) and new self-assurance (on the part of the human) is also found in literary texts. Using the example of two stories – An Emigrant (1914/1930) by Selma Lagerlöf and Popp and Mingel (1960) by Marie Luise Kaschnitz – these considerations are explored: Two adolescent boys take up the doll's narrative of alterity as a potential for differentiating their self-concept, which leads to their being able to release themselves from gender role clichés for a certain time.Source Type:ArticleJournal:denkste: puppe / just a bit of: doll (de:do)Volume number:2022,1-Artikel_093 3
