An Analysis of the Male Images in Beloved
In the culture of white domination,black identity has been a problem for African Americans for a long time.Black people were considered inferior animals or inferior races.Their identity has always been associated with negative words and is always in crisis.Therefore,the image of black men has always occupied an important position in black literature.Black literature,especially classical literature with the theme of the black male identity,is of great significance for the contemporary black male to obtain his subjectivity.At the same time,these works have important implications for the oppressed men who want to obtain the dignity of living.In Beloved,by describing the change in the male characters different attitudes towards their lives,this novel reveals that racial discrimination and oppression destroy the physical and mental health of black men,and then constructs the black male identity from the perspective of the relationship between black men and others.
