Oneirocriticism of Richard Wright's The Long Dream

Bu çalışma Richard Wright'ın The Long Dream [Uzun Bir Rüya] adlı romanında ortaya koyduğu ırk, aile ve ulusal aidiyet konularını irdelemeye ve eserde bahsi geçen linç kültürü, melezleşme, ırk/etnisite kökenli ulus söylemi, cinsel kimliklerin oluşumu gibi konu ve olguları, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'nin sosyopolitik ve sosyokültürel yapılarını oluşturan kölelik, Jim Crow, Ulusal Bağımsızlık Günü ve Amerikan Rüyası gibi tarihsel dönüm noktaları ışığında analiz etmeye çalışır. Ayrıca, kişiye özgü olduğu düşünülen rüya analizleri ekseninde ırk/ırkçılık, vatandaşlık kavramlarının edebi ve toplumsal tezahürleri üzerine bir tartışma sunulmaktadır

Richard Wright, The Long Dream [Uzun Bir Rüya]' in Rüya Analizi

The This study offers an exploration into the issues of race, family, and national belonging in Richard Wright's novel The Long Dream and seeks to address the contentious topics of lynch culture, miscegenation, race/ethnicity oriented national discourse, and the formation of sexual identities in light of the sociopolitical and sociocultural milieus of the United States, specifically, the watershed moments of slavery, Jim Crow, Fourth of July, and American Dream in the United States history. Furthermore, along the axis of dream analyses, which are purported to be idiosyncratic manifestations, a discussion on race/racism, citizenship and their literary representations, and public demonstrations is offered
