Abstract:

This paper examines the stylistic analysis of Toni Morrison 's Beloved (2004) using the analytic model developed by Leech and Short (1981) as the major approach. The researcher is aiming to identify the principal stylistic devices used by Morrison in her famous novel Beloved. The unique style of Morrison reflects the way readers respond to the novel. Morrison's language in this novel is not only a tool of communication but it is also a means of information. Morrison focuses on the interconnectivity between language and identity because there is a relationship between the spoken words and how t

Abstract:

Toni Morrison verbalizes in novel manners the pain and battle of a traumatized self and local area. In her novels, the traumatic truth of a dark self shows itself in the characters' self-hatred and self-disdain, and in the deficiency of their individual and cultural identity. Her fiction resolves issues of African American history, traumatizing experience and identity, often additionally captivating with inquiries of sex and sex, and, less significantly, class. When writing in a climate where everything except a couple of dark writers battled for acknowledgment, presently the subject of much r

Song of Solomon, a novel written by the renowned author Toni Morrison, who won the Nobel Prize in 1993. This novel shows Milkman’s ultimate liberation, from an isolated black community to a utopian black community built by Morrison. It is his journey to find his root and a means to realize his cultural belief. This paper delves into the spatial anxiety in Song of Solomon from the perspective of literary cartography.

Abstract:

The present article analyzes Morrison's novels with emphasis on the conflicted emotions of fictional African-American mothers in relation to their children. Of special interest is Morrison's depiction of the mother's role in shaping the individuation process of her daughters in a matriarchal, father-absent context. Also examined is Morrison's treatment of intergenerational continuity and the unique role of the grandmother against a background of social change. Such change is interpreted by Morrison as involving conflict between the norms of traditional, rural, folkloric black culture, and the

Abstract:

This research paper explores the profound influence of African American folklore in the novels of Toni Morrison. By examining her essential novels such as Beloved, Song of Solomon, and Tar Baby, the study investigates how Morrison weaves elements of folklore, including myth, oral traditions, and cultural rituals, into her narratives. The analysis reveals how Morrison employs folklore to enrich her storytelling, develop complex characters, and address themes of identity, memory, and community. Moreover, the research highlights how Morrison’s integration of folklore serves as a powerful tool for

Abstract:

This thesis investigates Toni Morrison's engagement with tragedy in her novel Beloved. In opposition to late twentieth-century interpretations of Beloved, which see this novel as reordering or revisiting history in order to establish in its characters a sense of self-worth, this thesis understands Beloved as the narrative which calls a halt to the search for a worthy sense of self in a prescribed history. It argues that the form of this novel is designed and arranged in order to present in dramatic time a conception of a consciousness recognisable as already and always existing in African Amer

Ce travail tourne essentiellement autour de l'œuvre de l'écrivain afro-américaine Toni Morrison. Il s'agit de voir en quoi son écriture des corps noirs et de l'héritage afro-américain, ainsi que son élaboration d'une voix tragique propre, font de sa voix une voix interdite, une voix littéraire de la mémoire et de la souffrance, s'élevant contre la censure et contre l'oubli. A chacun des trois thèmes-corps, héritage, pathos-correspond un chapitre.

One application of this theory has been explored in the novel Tar Baby in which Morrison addresses the predicament of homelessness in relationship to African-American love relationships. Another application of this theory deals with the problem of being at home in a cultural and psychological sense and being at home in a physical and bodily sense.<p> In both Beloved and Tar Baby, Toni Morrison reveals

This thesis examines a significant but little-studied feature of Toni Morrison's work: her ambivalent engagement with classical tradition. Analysing all eight novels. it argues that her allusiveness to the cultural practices of Ancient Greece and Rome is fundamental to her political project. Illuminating hegemonic America's consistent recourse to the classical world in the construction of its identity, I expand on prior scholarship by reading Morrison's own revisionary classicism as a subversion of dominant US culture.

Abstract:

Dismemberment in the Fiction of Toni Morrison investigates the motif of dismemberment in Morrison's fiction from multiple perspectives—historical, psychological and cultural. My first chapter on A Mercy focusses on the aspect of historical dismemberment in the context of colonialism and slavery. I look at the forced separation of African Americans from their families and motherland in terms of originary experiences of racism and dismemberment. This entailed fragmentation for African Americans who struggled to develop strategies of survival in the New World. My second chapter on Jazz focuses on
