Abstract

humbert, throughout lolita, creates an inescapable defeat through his interactions with lolita and his antagonist, Clare Quilty. These interactions contradict his early confidence in possessing lolita. These characters consciously threat humbert's exclusive relationship with lolita. Their successful efforts, especially those of lolita herself, against humbert's idealized romance with lolita stand as manifestations of inherent vulnerabilities within committed relationships, exposing a common thread between masochism and monogamy.
