Essay from the year 2017 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 14, Sultan Moulay Sliman University (Faculty of Arts and Humanities), language: English, abstract: This paper examines the subtle and intricate structure with which Carson McCullers endows her masterpiece "The Member of the Wedding. " In point of fact, McCullers's meticulous choice of the narrative elements within this novel, namely the characters, the setting, and the themes, is quite meaningful, for it engrafts the novel at once within the Bildungsroman and the Southern Renaissance frameworks. In other words, the examination of the characters and their symbolic affiliation with the protagonist, the conceptualization of the temporal context from Gerard Genette's and Northrop Frye's perspectives, the delineation of the social and existential dimensions of space, and the uncovering of the blatant and latent themes within the novel all unearth the multifaceted construction of the novel which elevates it into a "potpourri" of age and race.
