Black identity in Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's novel Americanah : master's thesis = Črnska identiteta v romanu Americanah Chimamande Ngozi Adichie : magistrsko delo
Vaupotič, Nika
The thesis analysed the formation of black identity in Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's novel Americanah (2013). It aimed to uncover whether it is possible to talk about black identity, how it is formed ...and what influences its formation. It primarily explored how the author presented the formation of black identity in the protagonist of the novel through factors such as race, racism and racial terminology, body image, skin, hair and hair salons. In conducting the analysis of the problem, various critical approaches have been used, such as close reading of the text, formalist and stylistic analyses, review of literature and scholarly articles about the author and black identity, and the biographical method, followed by an evaluation and comprehensive interpretation of the topic in the scope of historical, social and linguistic contexts. Based on the examples presented, it appeared that exposure to various forms of racism, racial discrimination and marginalization, primarily connected to visual appearance, social position, treatment and opportunities (e. g., lighter skin and straighter hair improve one's job prospects), led the protagonist to discover the meaning of being black in America. Thus, the research showed that the formation of black identity is influenced by the environment in which one lives and the social attitudes to which one is exposed.
