The Ghosts of Slavery Historical Recovery In Toni Morrison’s Beloved
View through CrossRef
Abstract
Toni Morrison’s Beloved reconceptualizes American history. Most apparent in the novel is the historical perspective: Morrison constructs history through the acts and consciousness of African-American slaves rather than through the perspective of the dominant white social classes. But historical methodology takes another vital shift in Beloved; history-making becomes a healing process for the characters, the reader, and the author.
