| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
My research examines the representations of historical trauma in African American literature and visual art, that is, how African American writers and artists represent traumatic events from history and attempt to pass them on to the future generation. More specifically, my research focuses on how Toni Morrison not only attempts to reconstruct the traumatized history of African-American people but also to re-conceptualize the notions of race, history, and community through interactions with visual art in her historiographic works.
