29.1992 Freedom in 'Song of Solomon' and 'The Color Purple'.
In Toni Morrison's Song of Solomon and Alice Walker's The Color Purple, psychological and emotional freedom is presented as a goal that has to be earned. In the case of each novel's main characters, that freedom is earned by rising above and moving beyond suffering and pain: the characters transcend their old, hurtful existences and achieve freedom from what dragged them down earlier in life. Milkman Dead in Song of Solomon and Celie in The Color Purple achieve very different kinds of freedom. Celie's story ends in an almost stereotypical "happy ending," while Milkman Dead's fate is much more ambiguous, but both characters leave their past pain behind and move into a better present. 5 pgs. 18 f/c. 2b.

31.3844 "The Wedding" by Dorothy West: A Tapestry of Race and Class in the Harlem Renaissance.
This essay considers how Dorothy West's novel, "The Wedding," portrays the conflicts of race and class during the 1950s, a time that has been hailed as the Harlem Renaissance. By contradicting the revival of African-American identity, West weaves a complex history of generational identities and relations that reveal the collusion of race and class, where wealth and respect are internalized as synonymous with whiteness. West's narrative works as a thread through American history, as characters recall their own pasts, and their own relations with African-American history. 8 pgs. Bibliography lists 1 source.

35.4218 Identifying a Novel: Identifying Diaspora in the Blues of "The Invisible Man".
This paper explores the relation between cultural diaspora and the blues as represented in Ralph Ellison's The Invisible Man. The main argument of this paper is that the Black experience is challenged by the literary text because the cultural foundations of literary are of White colonialism, and White dominance. Ellison's effort to represent the Black experience can be understood as a project that aimed to disclose its own impossibility, that the Black identity could not be described in text, but rather could only be alluded to through imagery, rhythm, tonality, and music. 10 pgs. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
