Flannery O'Connor/"Good Man" & Revelation
Number of pages:
5
ABSTRACT:
A 5 page essay that analyzes, contrasts and compares two short stories by O'Connor, "A Good Man is Hard to Find" and "Revelation." In both of these narratives, O'Connor offers detailed characterizations that, intertwined with violence, aid the reader in perceiving religious, social and philosophical issues that pertain to Southern culture and its changing nature during O'Connor's era. While O'Connor does not state any overt religious message in these narratives, in both stories she indicates through the events described certain truths concerning the darker recesses of the human psyche, particularly in regards to the Southern women who are her protagonists, relating these themes to her own unique religious and spiritual perspective. No additional sources cited.
