"I am interested in the influence of the past on the present, I think that if we know more about history, we will learn more about modern life more automatically.In addition the past is for imaginary purposes We have a future.

Section 002 - Toni Morrison as a novelist and critic. In the early 1980's interview, Tony Morrison said, "The story is still the best way to learn something ... I will continue to explain the form." The purpose of this course is Morrison's explanation. Use of story form and figurative language We read almost all of Morrison's novels, research topics, and formal strategies. I also read Morrison's literary and cultural criticisms, paying particular attention to the way these novel issues are addressed in the novel. One of the questions we try to answer by reading the novels and critiques together is how how the story works as a theoretical form. Another continuous concern in the classroom is to put Morrison's work in African American and American literary traditions and to investigate the relationship between her aesthetics and the aesthetics of African American music.

In an interview with NPR several years ago, Toni Morrison discussed her 2008 novel "Pity" and was interviewed by the interviewer in a paragraph suggesting "People's War". The interviewer asked Morrison to provide more details; the author explored the importance of the historical event officially known as the bacon rebellion. In 1676, Morrison explained how Nathaniel Bacon, a member of a land gentleman, organized the power of the white elite, the servant of the white contract and the power of the black slaves to establish a coup against the governor of Virginia. - One century before America was independent - as an important moment for the United States to emphasize ethnic conflicts permanently. Morrison explained that after the revolt, laws to attract white people from the lower classes were instantly enacted so as not to work with people other than white people in a unified way.
Toni Morrison set conditions for this interview at her house in northern New York. But any question was forgiven, and she was not interested in updating her answer. No need: Morrison uses the same clarity and musicality to distinguish her sentences. She talked about racial discrimination and "white people", the tension between memory and oblivion, and the art of writing about sex. She laughed a lot, began to tell stories from childhood, and refused to reveal the name of the current US President. One hour agreement, conversation lasted nearly 2 hours
