About the Book

Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject American Studies - Literature, University of Hamburg, course: African- American Literature, language: English, abstract: First published in 1983, the story of Alice Walker's The Color Purple is set in rural Georgia in the 1930's. It is narrated through the letters of Celie, the protagonist, who begins to write to God in order to tell him about her life, since her step-father sexually abused her and told her to never tell anyone but God about it.

Therefore I am first going to analyse the relationships between Celie and the characters that are important for this topic and second have a look at the symbols and indicators that are used by the author throughout the novel in order to show that a ch
