Narratives of identity: the interplay of language and oppression in three postcolonial novels : m. a. thesis [Elektronski vir] = Zgodbe identitet: prepletenost jezika in zatiranja v treh postkolonialnih romanih : magistrsko deloHelbel, BernardaThis MA thesis examines the relationship between language and identity in postcolonial contexts, as portrayed in the works of Andrea Levy and Jean Rhys. The thesis focuses on the female narrators in ... The Long Song, Wide Sargasso Sea, and Small Island, exploring the ways in which language shapes their identities and the impact of external voices on their stories. The thesis aims to highlight the tension between recovering individual subjects and fostering cultural and personal identity through language. Another section also examines the concept of double consciousness and the idealization of the prevailing culture, demonstrating the impact of language on one's perceptions of self and belonging. Through analysis of language style, the thesis argues that language can be both a hindrance and a catalyst for self-discovery and the formation of a more authentic identity. The thesis attempts to examine the lasting effects of colonialism and slavery and provides insights into the complexity of language and identity in postcolonial literature contexts.Type of material - master's thesis ; adult, seriousPublication and manufacture - Maribor : [B.
