@misc{Del_Guercio_Gerardo_Hybridity, author={Del Guercio, Gerardo}, howpublished={online}, publisher={Zielona Góra: Oficyna Wydawnicza Uniwersytetu Zielonogórskiego}, language={eng}, abstract={Toni Morrison`s stories have centered on reciting life stories, mounting new and individual ideas of the self. The present essay revisits Morrisom`s first book, "The Bluest Eye", to consider her first female her, Claudia, and her hybrid growth. Hybridity is used, in "The Bluest Eye", as a narrative approach to craft Claudia`s self through the course of the novel, enabling her gallant endurance within an antagonistic cultural milieu.}, abstract={Yet, in "The Bluest Eye", hybridity is not conceived as an undecided or liminal existence in Homi Bhabha`s sense. For Toni Morrison, being trapped "in-between" is neper an industrious space for characters that resist with inner and exterior acceptance. Consequently, this essay provides a critical reassessment of Bhabha`s hybridity through the examination of Claudia`s selfdevelopment.}, abstract={I contend that Toni Morrison?s "The Bluest Eye" confronts the conception of "liminality" for its incapability to illustrate the narrative route by which subjects form themselves productively outside the weight of peripheral primers of identification. Instead, Morrison chooses a dialogic configuration of subjectivities more similar to M.M. Bhaktin`s "inner speech" and "hybridity" conjectured in his influential work, "The Dialogic Imagination".}, type={rozdział w książce}, title={Hybridity in Morrison`s "The bluest eye": the dialogic formation of Claudia`s self}, keywords={Morrison, Toni (1931-2019), "The Bluest Eye", hybridity, Bhabha, Homi (1949- ), Bachtin, Michaił Michajłowicz (1895-1975)}, }
