Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper aims at studying Womanism and Womanism in The Color Purple. Alice Walker’s Womanism is originated from feminism and it has new demands and different perspectives to feminism. This paper elaborates Womanism in The Color Purple from the following three perspectives: the dilemma of the black women in The Color Purple, the revival of the female consciousness, and the subjectivity rebuilding of the black women. The novel gives a full expression of the ideological connotation and vivid description of black women’s struggle for liberation and nationalities’ striving for equality based on Womanism. This paper reveals Walker's intention to awaken the female self- consciousness of being self-respected, self-supported and eventually self-liberated, as well as her dream of building a harmonious society in which men and women, white and black live in harmony. Keywords: The Color Purple, Womanism, female consciousness, the subjectivity rebuilding with Nettie’s African adventure as complementary. I.

You will also be asked to complete and revise informal responses, in-class writing in response to prompts and formal critical analysis/argumentative and evaluative essays. The primary goal of this course is to develop you into a reader and writer capable of experiencing, interpreting and evaluating great works of literature and of thinking critically about the historical, cultural, psychological and sociological impact of these works. The literature, writing, and projects used in this course are meant to be intellectually stimulating and are very demanding.
