| dc.description.abstract | Abstract This project is about Zora Neale Hurston’s construction of multiple self and her stance from the racial issues in her ambiguous autobiography Dust Tracks on Road. It also sheds light on the reality of African Americans in the United States, and women’s sufferance in a racist society. Hurston's work is an imaginative and creative summary of her rise from the rural south to a prominent position among leading writers and intellectuals. Dust Tracks is considered a highly regarded work as well as controversial for its refusal to investigate the effects of racism or segregation. Throughout the autobiography, Hurston maintains a positive, invincible attitude. White readers seemed to appreciate her lack of commentary on racial issues; black critics, on the other hand, found this unconscionable and accused her of pandering to whites. In order to reveal the ambiguity of this work, Hurston's autobiography will be thoroughly examined and interpreted by relying on Black criticism. This thesis is divided into two main chapters׃the first is a discussion of the socio-historical context of the autobiography, which provides a better understanding of the issues discussed, and the second chapter is an analysis of issues such as identity and race, also to define the style that Zora employs when writing about issues that are extremely important to her and her race | en_US |
