Flannery O'Connor's Themes Of Grace And Good Versus Evil
Number of pages:
12
ABSTRACT:
12 pages in length. Thematic composition is the structural basis of Flannery O'Connor's effective approach to confronting social ills. Utilizing the tenets of grace and good versus evil, the prolific author strives to enlighten her readership by illustrating how ordinary, everyday people struggle to find their respective places within the grander scheme of life. O'Connor does not sugar coat the truth but instead fills her empty white pages with slices of social, religious and psychological conflicts that can readily be argued to affect virtually every individual who traverses this planet. Analyzing John Huston's cinematic version of Wise Blood finds the director to have aligned his adaptation quite closely to O'Connor's literary personality and as such taps into the depth of character Haze may have cultivated if he had ever considered carving out a life for himself instead of merely drifting along with no semblance of direction. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
