Gayl Jones' 'Corregidora'
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Humanity can be a cruel and detestable entity. No one is more aware of that fact than Ursa, a blues singer whose own family's sordid past consumes her with a hatred so deep, she carries it with her throughout her life. Portrayed as a nineteenth-century slave master who impregnates both Ursa's mother and grandmother, the slave master father holds a particular place of contempt in her heart, for it is because of the brutal way in which black women are treated during that era that sets Ursa on her lifelong journey of repugnance. The writer offers a critical analysis of Gayl Jones' classic novel. No additional sources cited.

Marshall's The Chosen Place, The Timeless People
[ send me this paper ]
Community is a
concept that is difficult to define and harder yet to maintain. This 6
page paper argues that Paule Marshall's book, The Chosen Place, The
Timeless People, as the title indicates, incorporates two distinctive
themes. The first is represented as The Chosen Place and refers to the
political, economic and social schema of the West Indian island and is
set in juxtaposition with the western form of living, specifically
colonialism as represented by the corporate style of UNICOR. The second
is seen in her development of characters that represent the dichotomy of
old and new cultures; also seen as the culture of the island and the
outside world. No additional sources are listed.

Morrison's The Bluest Eye & Salinger's The Catcher In The Rye
[ send me this paper ]
Morrison and Salinger have both chosen to have the plot revolve around the
misconception of the community and the need for adolescents (innocence)
to find acceptance. A loss of that innocence results in a need to
escape to somewhere or something that is able to fill the void. This 5
page paper argues that the character of Holden Caulfield in The Catcher
In The Rye and several of Morrison's characters in The Bluest Eye
experience a gradual psychic erosion that represents the weakening of
their concept of community. An explanation of epigram is includes as
well as suggestions for an epigrammatic title for the student's essay.
