Abstract

Resumen

Toni Morrison is a well known African American writer who is famous for winning important awards due to her creativity and talent. In the first chapter, we collected the most important aspects about Toni Morrison s life and beginning in her career. We describe Toni s early years, her school days and how her family influenced the love for reading and writing, and her development and consolidation as a famous writer. In the second chapter, we present a deep analysis of her Nobel Prize winner novel, Beloved, through its main characters: Sethe, Beloved, Denver, Paul D, and Baby Suggs. Likewise, we review the times and settings where the novel takes place. Also, because the novel is narrated through flashbacks and without chronological order, we have a character map which helps us to understand the complexity of the novel. The next chapters, three and four, contain historical events in Toni Morrison s time which influenced her to write such amazing works. In chapter three, we describe events related to how African American people fought to obtain equal rights in the American society of that time. Also, we made a recounting of people, including presidents and leaders, who have contributed to desegregate barriers that prohibited the African American s free development. Finally, chapter four shows how the times mentioned above are reflected in her works. In order to make this chapter we considered Toni s greatest works: The Bluest Eye, Sula, Song of Solomon, Tar Baby, Beloved and Jazz.
