This seminar provides intensive study of texts by two American authors (Herman Melville, 1819-1891, and Toni Morrison, 1931-) who, using lyrical, radically innovative prose, explore in different ways epic notions of American identity.

• 本研讨课程将针对两位均用抒情字句、完全创新的措辞、并以不同的方式探索“美国认同”这项概念的美国作家：梅尔维尔(1819~1891)及摩里森(1931~迄今)，进行彻底探讨。
