FOREWORD 10 INTRODUCTION 12 RICHARD WRIGHT: A BIOGRAPHY 14 CHARACTERS
AND PLOT 36 CHAPTER 1: THE ART OF NATIVE SON 1. WRIGHT S CRAFT IS AS
IMPORTANT AS CONTENT IN NATIVE SON BY JOYCE ANN JOYCE 43 WHILE PLOT IS
IMPORTANT IN ANY WORK OF FICTION, RICHARD WRIGHT KNOWS THAT OTHER
ELEMENTS OF FICTION, SUCH AS WRITING STYLE, ARE ALSO CRUCIAL TO THE ART
OF , NOVEL WRITING. IN NATIVE SON HE RELIES HEAVILY ON THE MECHANICS OF
HIS CRAFT. 2. THE AMERICAN BLACK MAN S EXPERIENCE IS REFLECTED THROUGH
IMAGERY IN NATIVE SON BY JAMES A. EMANUEL 52 THE FURNACE, BIGGER S
STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF ROOMS, THE CHRISTIAN CROSS, BLINDNESS, LOOMING
WALLS, AND OTHER POWERFUL IMAGES WORK TOGETHER IN NATIVE SON TO
DRAMATIZE THE MALE AFRICAN AMERICAN EXPERIENCE. 3. THE VIOLENCE OF THE
BEAST: ANIMAL IMAGERY IN NATIVE SON BY ROBERT FELGAR 62 WRIGHT EMPLOYS
ANIMAL IMAGERY THROUGHOUT NATIVE SON TO SUGGEST THAT WHITES IN THE NOVEL
VIEW BLACKS AS ANIMALS AND BIGGER, ESPECIALLY, AS A BEAST. 4. WRIGHT S
ALLUSIONS TO COLOR-BLINDNESS IN NATIVE SON BY SEYMOUR L. GROSS 67
READERS ARE QUICK TO DISCERN THAT BLINDNESS IN NATIVE SON IS METAPHORIC,
AN ALLUSION TO COLOR AND THE RACISM OF THE NOVEL. WHAT MANY DO NOT KNOW,
HOWEVER, IS THAT THE NAME DALTON ITSELF IS AN ALLUSION TO
COLOR-BLINDNESS, WHICH ADDS MORE METAPHORIC MEANING TO THE WORK. 5. THE
CONCLUSION OF NATIVE SON IS OFTEN MISUNDERSTOOD BY PAUL N. SIEGEL 70
THERE IS LESS COMMUNIST PARTY IDEOLOGY AT WORK IN THE CONCLUSION OF
NATIVE SON THA N SOME CRITICS HAVE SUGGESTED, AND THE FACT THAT BIGGER
HEADS TOWARD HIS DEATH SENTENCE WITH HATRED FOR HIS OPPRESSORS IN HIS
HEART IS NOT AS MUCH A DEFEAT AS IT MAY SEEM. CHAPTER 2: CHARACTERS IN
NATIVE SON 1. WRIGHT S MALE HEROES AND FEMALE CHARACTERS ARE ARCHETYPES
BY MARIA K. MOOTRY 82 WRIGHT S MALE HEROES TURN TO VIOLENCE AFTER
SUFFERING RACIAL AND ECONOMIC INJUSTICES IN AMERICA; HIS FEMALE
CHARACTERS, ON THE OTHER HAND, OFTEN PLAY THE ROLE OF COCONSPIRATOR OF
THE OPPRESSOR. 2. WRIGHT S MINOR WOMEN CHARACTERS ARE MORE SYMPATHETIC
THAN THE MEN BY KATHLEEN OCHSHORN 91 UNLIKE THE MOSTLY UNSYMPATHETIC
MALE CHARACTERS OF NA- TIVE SON, WRIGHT S FEMALE CHARACTERS, BOTH WHITE
AND BLACK, SUGGEST A COMMUNITY OF SHARED, MOSTLY POSITIVE VALUES THAT
BALANCE THE HARSH REALITY OF BIGGER THOMAS. 3. BIGGER THOMAS IS A
PRODUCT OF MASS CULTURE BY ROSS PUDALOFF 98 AS A CHARACTER, BIGGER
THOMAS DOES NOT POSSESS THE KIND OF DEPTH THAT TRADITIONAL PROTAGONISTS
POSSESS. RATHER, HE IS A STEREOTYPICAL PRODUCT OF MASS CULTURE, DEFINING
HIMSELF ONLY BY THE IMAGES OF HIMSELF THAT HIS ENVIRONMENT PRO- VIDES
HIM. 4. BIGGER THOMAS WANTS TO BE HEARD BY JAMES A. MILLER 107 ALTHOUGH
HE IS ARTICULATE WITHIN HIS OWN COMMUNITY, BIGGER WANTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD
IN WHITE SOCIETY. ULTIMATELY HE GAINS AN AUDIENCE IN THAT SOCIETY
THROUGH HIS VIOLENT ACTS, BUT HE MUST THEN FACE DEATH IN ISOLATION AS
THOSE WHO WERE ONCE WILLING TO HELP HIM RECOIL FROM HIS ACCEPTANCE OF
HIMSELF AS A KILLER. 5. BIGGER THOMAS REPRESENTS THE SOCIAL PLIGHT OF
THE LOWER CLASSES BY JAMES ROBERT SOUNDERS 115 BIGGER THOMAS IS AN
EXAMPLE OF THE ALIENATED LOWER CLASSES, SEGREGATED BY RACISM IN SOCIETY.
HIS VIOLENT ACTS SUGGEST THAT ALIENATION CAN LEAD TO SOCIAL HARM. (
NIEDF.RS. A SSYAATS-U.UNIV.-I J BJBUOTHEK | CHAPTER 5: THE POWER OF
PLACE IN NATIVE SON 1. NATIVE SON IS SET IN A GOTHIC GHETTO BY ROBERT
BUTLER 120 THE GOTHIC LANDSCAPE OF THE CHICAGO GHETTO IN NATIVE SON
CAUSES BIGGER TO SUFFER PARALYSIS AND ALIENATION. IT IS A STRANGE
NETHER WORLD THAT THREATENS TO DESTROY HIM FOR ITS LACK OF WARMTH AND
LIGHT. 2. MAN S NEED FOR COMMUNITY: THE FAILURE OF THE CITY IN NATIVE
SON BY CHARLES W. SCRUGGS 125 THE THEME OF NATIVE SON I S NOT THE
INDIVIDUAL VERSUS SOCIETY, BUT MAN S NEED FOR COMMUNITY, AND IN THE CASE
OF BIGGER THOMAS, THE FAILURE OF HIS ENVIRONMENT*THE CITY*TO PROVIDE IT.
3. URBAN RACISM CAUSES RIGGER S IRRATIONALITY BY SEODIAL DEENA 133
BIGGER THOMAS S IRRATIONAL ACTS STEM FROM HIS FEAR OF THE GULF BETWEEN
BLACKS AND WHITES IN HIS ENVIRONMENT. CHAPTER 4: RELIGION, RACISM, AND
VIOLENCE: THEMES IN NATIVE SON 1. NATIVE SON IS A NOVEL OF RELIGIOUS
SKEPTICISM BY ROBERT L. DOUGLAS 143 WRIGHT S TREATMENT OF REVEREND
HAMMOND AND HIS CONCEPT OF A RELIGIOUS WORLDVIEW IN NATIVE SON SUGGEST
THAT THE NOVEL IS ONE OF RELIGIOUS SKEPTICISM. 2. A MISSED CLUE PROVES
THE EXISTENCE OF RACISM IN NATIVE SON BY DOYLE W. WALLS 148 WHEN THOSE
INVOLVED IN BIGGER S CASE FAIL TO DETECT AN OBVI- OUS CLUE THAT HE IS
THE KILLER OF MARY DALTON, IT IS CLEAR THAT THEY HAVE REJECTED HIS
HUMANITY. THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND HIS LANGUAGE; THEREFORE, THEY DO NOT
KNOW HIM. 3. NATIVE SON IS A NOVEL OF REVOLT BY STEVEN J. RUBIN 152
NATIVE SON WORKS WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF SOCIAL PROTEST, REPRESENTING AN
EXAMINATION OF THE THEME OF PERSONAL RE- BELLION, A THEME DOMINATING THE
WRITING OF EUROPEAN WRIT- ERS OF WRIGHT S DAY. 4. EXPLAINING THE
VIOLENCE OF NATIVE SON BY JERRY H. BRYANT 157 BIGGER THOMAS LIVES
VICARIOUSLY, WATCHING WHITES OBTAIN THE THINGS HE WANTS MOST. WITHOUT
THE SAME OPPORTUNITIES, HE RECEIVES NO NOURISHMENT OR REWARD FROM
SOCIETY; IT IS ONLY THROUGH VIOLENCE THAT HE IS ABLE TO FIND MEANING IN
HIS LIFE. 5. VIOLENCE IN NATIVE SON SHOCKS READERS INTO AWARENESS OF
WHITE OPPRESSION BY LAUREL J. GARDNER 164 IN IMAGINING BIGGER THOMAS,
WRIGHT CREATES A REPRESENTA- TION OF THE EVIL THAT WHITE SOCIETY
ENCOURAGES THROUGH ITS OPPRESSION OF BLACKS. WRIGHT HOPED WHITE READERS
WOULD REALIZE HE IS A DANGEROUS PRODUCT OF HIS RACIST ENVIRONMENT.
