1.1 Background of the study
As one of the most important writers, Toni Morrison plays the indispensable role in American literature. As a black writer, Toni Morrison gains world-wide reputation as one of the best writers in the history of American literature and she mainly pays attention to the life of the black people. Toni Morrison leaves many famous works to the readers. These works are Beloved, The Bluest Eye, Sula, Song of Solomon, Tar Baby, Jazz as well as Paradise. In these works, Morrison picks up her writing materials from the life of the ordinary black people. Because of these works, Morrison gets the great achievement and wins the Nobel Prize for her “who, in novels characterized by visionary force and poetic import, gives life to an essential aspect of American reality”.
Among all the works of Toni Morrison, Beloved is the most irreplaceable one. As Toni Morrison’s finest works, Beloved has attracted thousands of readers and critics since its publication. This novel takes an infanticide story as its main trend, and deeply exposes the terrible experience which is left by the slavery in the hearts of the black people. In this famous novel, the author Toni Morrison uses various writing techniques to reveal the inner feelings of her heart. With its abundant writing techniques as well as relative whacky plots, the novel Beloved has been considered as a classic work in the present literary world. |
