Abstract
In this thesis, Toni Morrison’s novels Beloved (1987), The Bluest Eye (1970) and Sula (1974) will be considered from the point of view of developmental psychology. Namely, Morrison’s works can be seen as representing an intertwinement of social, historico-political and emotional themes which play a crucial role in the identity construction of the author’s characters. Therefore, the Ecological Systems Theory proposed by Urie Bronfenbrenner will employed to closely examine how Morrison’s characters’ identities are being shaped in the aforementioned novels. The usage of the five systems on which Bronfenbrenner’s bioecological model is based– chronosystem, macrosystem, exosystem, mesosystem and microsystem, will provide an often missing holistic approach necessary for better understanding of how and why Morrison’s characters are (un)able to finish their developmental journey of identity construction successfully.
Abstract (croatian)
U ovom će se radu romani Beloved (1987), The Bluest Eye (1970) i Sula (1974) autorice Toni Morrison, razmatrati sa stajališta razvojne psihologije. Naime, djela autorice Morrison često predstavljaju ispreplitanje društvenih, povijesno-političkih i emocionalnih tema, a koje igraju ključnu ulogu u konstrukciji identiteta autoričinih likova. Iz tog razloga, teorija ekoloških sustava Urija Bronfenbrennera bit će korištena u svrhu detaljne analize načina na koje Morrison konstruira identitet likova u prethodno navedenim romanima. Korištenje pet sustava na kojima se temelji Bronfenbrennerov bioekološki model– krono, makro, egzo, mezo i mikrosustav omogućit će često zanemareni holistički pristup, a koji je potreban zbog boljeg razumijevanja načina i razloga koji o(ne)mogućuju likovima Toni Morrison da uspješno završe svoje razvojno putovanje izgradnje identiteta.
