Richard Wright's "Black Boy" And James Baldwin's "Go Tell It On The Mountain": Family, Religious Faith And Survival
Number of pages:
11
ABSTRACT:
11 pages in length. Richard Wright's Black Boy and James Baldwin's Go Tell It on the Mountain critically apply the themes of family, religious faith and survival in such a way that readers are left pondering whether or not these particular elements are truly reflective of each story's respective characters or if, rather, they are merely superficial components that represent only what family means from an idealists perspective. Indeed, one can readily surmise that while religious faith is the common denominator among family members, it is not necessarily so by way of moral guidance; rather, it provides social institutions and a type of self-rule for a people in bondage. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
