Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2015 in the subject American Studies - Literature, , language: English, abstract: The Bluest Eye is simple yet a difficult narrative of a twelve year old black girl Pecola’s desire to have blue eyes. The question arises why does a black girl want blue eyes? Why does she want to look differently? What causes this desire in her? As the story unfolds we get answers to these questions and also a realization that how the simple things like cup images or candy wrappers can be a strong factor in influencing an individual’s psychological response to beauty and his/her own self importance. The present paper while building on existing criticism tries to explore the popular culture, for instance children items (cups, dolls, candies) and movies and its individual psychological response. These commercial products play a pivotal role in establishing beauty aesthetics. Regular exposure to these ideals results in their idealization and a longing in people to have these defining physical features of beauty. It creates an environment of superiority and inferiority. People who possess the defining features (physical) are considered superior to those who don’t have these physical features. This adversely affects their psyche and becomes a reason for their downfall.

This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research looks on Toni Morrison's usage of several narrative voices in her novel Home. Its goal is to reveal the impact and purpose of this novel's employment of such a narrative method. The use of a variety of narrative tactics and horrific events creates a horror universe that represents the African American community's sorrow and struggle. The current study examines how racism and patriarchy shaped the growth and creation of black female identity in Toni Morrison's books The Bluest Eye and Sula. Morrison's books depict how racial and gender prejudices influence the black female's struggle for individual identity and selfhood. These works mostly use horror as a tactic for exploring the traumatic history of black life. The study's goal is to investigate the function and relevance of terror, as well as the associated narrative techniques of disruption and disconnectedness, in revealing the repercussions of social exclusion in the texts. It is based on the premise that horror offers a different perspective on African American culture. The most disheartening part of human development and civilisation is that some of us are unable to embrace others as fellow humans. Human civilization is always divided by class, colour, and culture. Rather of embracing our differences and using them to our advantage, we fight to stifle and destroy others. Negroids were loathed by Caucasians, and the Mongoloids were continually at odds with Caucasians. We had lost our feeling of belonging. The chasm between wealthy and poor, between blacks and whites, and between man and woman is evident. Some unseen hand is constantly rolling the dice in the name of this class, race, and gender. Since the dawn of human civilization, human society has been basically split into classes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antiblack racism avows reason is white while emotion, and thus supposedly unreason, is black. Challenging academic adherence to this notion, Lewis R. Gordon offers a portrait of Martinican-turned-Algerian revolutionary psychiatrist and philosopher Frantz Fanon as an exemplar of “living thought” against forms of reason marked by colonialism and racism. Working from his own translations of the original French texts, Gordon critically engages everything in Fanon from dialectics, ethics, existentialism, and humanism to philosophical anthropology, phenomenology, and political theory as well as psychiatry and psychoanalysis. Gordon takes into account scholars from across the Global South to address controversies around Fanon’s writings on gender and sexuality as well as political violence and the social underclass. In doing so, he confronts the replication of a colonial and racist geography of reason, allowing theorists from the Global South to emerge as interlocutors alongside northern ones in a move that exemplifies what, Gordon argues, Fanon represented in his plea to establish newer and healthier human relationships beyond colonial paradigms.

Download or read book New Critical Essays on Toni Morrison's God Help the Child written by Alice Knox Eaton and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributions by Alice Knox Eaton, Mar Gallego, Maxine Lavon Montgomery, Evelyn Jaffe Schreiber, Shirley A. Stave, Justine Tally, Susana Vega-González, and Anissa Wardi In her eleventh novel, God Help the Child, Toni Morrison returned to several of the signature themes explored in her previous work: pernicious beauty standards for women, particularly African American women; mother-child relationships; racism and colorism; and child sexual abuse. God Help the Child, published in 2015, is set in the contemporary period, unlike all of her previous novels. The contemporary setting is ultimately incidental to the project of the novel, however; as with Morrison’s other work, the story takes on mythic qualities, and the larger-than-life themes lend themselves to allegorical and symbolic readings that resonate in light of both contemporary and historical issues. New Critical Essays on Toni Morrison's “God Help the Child”: Race, Culture, and History, a collection of eight essays by both seasoned Morrison scholars as well as new and rising scholars, takes on the novel in a nuanced and insightful analysis, interpreting it in relation to Morrison’s earlier work as well as locating it within ongoing debates in literary and other academic disciplines engaged with African American literature. The volume is divided into three sections. The first focuses on trauma—both the pain and suffering caused by neglect and abuse, as well as healing and understanding. The second section considers narrative choices, concentrating on experimentation and reader engagement. The third section turns a comparative eye to Morrison's fictional canon, from her debut work of fiction, The Bluest Eye, until the present. These essays build on previous studies of Morrison’s novels and deepen readers’ understanding of both her last novel and her larger literary output.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feminism has transformed the academic study of literature, fundamentally altering the canon of what is taught and setting new agendas for literary analysis.

A final section examines the impact of postmodernism on feminist thought and practice. This book offers a comprehensive guide to the history and development of feminist literary criticism and a lively reassessment of the main issues and authors in the field. It is essential reading for all students and scholars of feminist writing and literary criticism.

Download or read book White Theology written by J. Perkinson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-15 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: White Theology re-examines white race privilege throughout history and its relationship to black theology. James W. Perkinson articulates a white theology of responsibility responding to the claims of James Cone (and other black scholars) that serious engagement with history and culture must be at the heart of any American projection of integrity or "salvation" in the modern period. Perkinson interweaves autobiography and postcolonial analysis, history, and phenomenology to explore white supremacy and the future of religious studies. This is an essential and groundbreaking book for courses in religious studies, African American studies, and theology.
