A Narrative Performance for the Various Meaning's Discourse in Toni Morrison's Novel

This paper aims at describing the process on formation of the various meaning's discourse in a Afro-American community by performing narratives. Even though Morrison's novels appear to stand as divided self of binary oppositions, her characters exist as a complex configuration of their own conditiorn in a multiplicity of other factora and traits. In Jazz, Morrison moves from first-person narrator to third-person narrator by metafictional techniques, and combines the pieces and fragments of characters' memories. Although narrators are limited to her haughtiness and privileges at the beginning of the novel, they recover the generous reciprocity with other characters. Morrison try to deconstruct the fixed binary identity after tal<ing the forms of breaching conventional boundaries between narrators and characters, and between narrators and readers.
