T1 Invisibility and Blue Eyes: African-American Subjectivity
A1 Young, Robert
AB In this essay I theorize the relationship between African-Americansubjectivity and American identity. I suggest that American fiction andAmerican culture are framed by the invisibility of African-Americansubject. Specifically I elaborate upon a theory of African-Americansubjectivity and I use Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man and Toni Morrison’sThe Bluest Eye to frame my inquiry into African-American subjectivityEllison and Morrison effectively dramatize the “invisible” nature ofAfrican-American subjectivity, and this is their philosophical contribution:they articulate a post-empiricist and post-positivist account ofAfrican-American subjectivity
