Drawing upon psychoanalytic perspectives and Gothic literary elements, the study examines the novel’s distinct portrayal of the bond between the protagonist, Dorian Gray, and his haunting portrait. Unlike traditional Victorian Gothic tales, where supernatural entities embody the uncanny, Wilde’s work presents the portrait as a reflection of Dorian’s moral decay, rendering it a monstrous entity. The paper explores the amalgamation of the novel’s primary characters – Basil Hallward, Lord Henry, and Dorian – into a single entity, mirroring the artist's role in bestowing the portrait with a soul, defying the natural order. The analysis delves into the concept of the uncanny valley, which the portrait enters as it exhibits its dynamic nature, altering perceptions across three stages, culminating in a grotesque, life-like form. The research draws parallels between Freud’s notions of the uncanny and the novel’s portrayal of death, corpses, and the doppelganger, ultimately examining the theme of creator versus creation and the consequences of disrupting the natural order. According to Masahiro Mori, the uncanny valley effect occurs when an object is absolutely human-like, yet reveals its non-human essence. Dorian Gray’s portrait enters the uncanny valley as soon as it exhibits its dynamic nature, and when Dorian loses his human qualities both morally and physically. He surrenders a part of his «humanity» to the portrait. The reader’s perception of Dorian’s image and portrait changes in three stages: from positive to negative as Dorian’s self-destruction progresses. In the end, the picture takes on the characteristics of a moving dead. The third stage of the novel is Dorian Gray’s death and the restoration of the portrait’s original appearance. The reader is most disgusted at the moment when Dorian reaches the apex of his fall, and this is reflected in the portrait, which looks extremely ugly. The effect is reinforced by the presence of two uncanny creatures (Dorian and his picture) instead of a single one.Item Ways to Develop Critical Thinking in English Classes(ПП «Ліра ЛТД», Дніпро, 2022) Kyrpyta, Tamara V.ENG: The article discusses methods and approaches to organizing a foreign language class in such a way that it promotes the development of critical thinking in students.
