- W622746659 abstract "The Bluest Eye, published in 1970, is Toni Morrison‟s first novel, based on the author‟s experience concerning one of her elementary schoolmate‟s remarks that she wanted to have blue eyes. The story is set in Lorain, Ohio, between 1941 and 1942, and is told from the viewpoint of an 8-year-old black girl, Claudia. Morrison was born in Lorain, Ohio in 1931. Due to her friend‟s sentimental tone soliciting sympathy, the young Morrison “got mad” (p.209)1 at her friend‟s unusual desire. This unforgettable experience became her starting point as a writer. Through this experience she became aware of, and began to observe, the structure of “racial self-loathing.” (p.210) Morrison won the Pulitzer Prize in 1988, and the Nobel Prize in 1993, and up to the present she continued to write about the quest for self-esteem both in the community and from the point of view of the individual. As Morrison said in an interview with Danna Micucci in 1992, “the search for love and identity runs through most everything I write.”2 In this novel, each character shows us how each individual attempts to survive and build, keep, or lose one‟s self-concept in this white-centered framework. Morrison uses her deep insights and painstaking composition. Each character is a representative of a certain type of racial group, social class, or type of personality. In this paper I will analyze each character‟s way of forming a self-concept through four layers: the land, the community, the family, and the individual. Chapter one analyzes the invisibility of black people in the predominantly white country of America, chapter two focuses on the value standards inside the black community, and chapter three focuses on the parental influences on their children, then chapter four focuses on how the characters face their situation by way of their anger reactions on a personal level." @default.
