Abstract (english)
The paper studies the position of the South Asian community in the U.S. society by providing a detailed analysis of Jhumpa Lahiri's short stories from her two collections – The Interpreter of Maladies and Unaccustomed Earth. The focus is first placed on the two concepts – that of immigration and that of diaspora. These concepts are then used to further illustrate the South Asian diasporic identity and observe how this state of never fully belonging affects their process of (self-)identification and assimilation. Drawing on Homi K. Bhabha's notion on the third/hybrid space, it is claimed that South Asian immigrants strive to create a new kind of space – the intercultural space – which would be a progressive space that would bear the potential for cultural negotiation, communication and understanding. Since Jhumpa Lahiri's two short-story collections focus on the first, the second and the third generation of South Asian Americans, depicting their experience in great detail, these stories are then used to analyse how the processes of South Asian (self-)identification, their (un)successful attempts at assimilation and the creation of the intercultural space manifest themselves in different ways through each of these three generations.
