Sažetak
In this essay, the author analyses the role of emotional structures in the novels by Zora Neale Hurston, Joy Kogawa and Toni Morrison. The author addresses the complex relationship between individuals and their communities and shows that only supportive communities create healthy individuals. The analysis and conclusions argue that although the authors write at different time, they use similar themes and concepts. Moreover, their goals seem to be similar as well – they all request a stronger role for ethnic women in the United States and Canada, fight stereotypes about ethnic Americans and Canadians and ask for the revision of American and Canadian history.
