内容説明

This study addresses the influx of ethnic texts into the literary canon and provides a theoretical/pedagogical strategy for reading and teaching ethnic American texts based on the theoretical works of M.M. Bakhtin, particularly dialogism and literary polyphony. This study demonstrates reading strategies designed to help readers discover the polyphony in American ethnic minority texts and recognize how the characters' and narrators' representations of self and the self's relationship to its environment reside in this polyphony.
