Marshall's The Chosen Place, The Timeless People
[ send me this essay ]
Community is a
concept that is difficult to define and harder yet to maintain. This 6
page paper argues that Paule Marshall's book, The Chosen Place, The
Timeless People, as the title indicates, incorporates two distinctive
themes. The first is represented as The Chosen Place and refers to the
political, economic and social schema of the West Indian island and is
set in juxtaposition with the western form of living, specifically
colonialism as represented by the corporate style of UNICOR. The second
is seen in her development of characters that represent the dichotomy of
old and new cultures; also seen as the culture of the island and the
outside world. No additional sources are listed.

escape to somewhere or something that is able to fill the void. This 5
page paper argues that the character of Holden Caulfield in The Catcher
In The Rye and several of Morrison's characters in The Bluest Eye
experience a gradual psychic erosion that represents the weakening of
their concept of community. An explanation of epigram is includes as
well as suggestions for an epigrammatic title for the student's essay.
