Particular attention is given to the analysis of characters revealing different facets of the Jewish question. Maria Festa also provides a historical excursus on the notion of race and considers another character alluding to Shakespeare?s Othello to expose the paradoxes of the relationship between subjugator and subjugated. The study makes the case that among the novel?s most remarkable achievements is Phillips?s effort to redress the absence of the Other from our history, that by depicting experiences of displacement, and by confronting readers with seemingly disconnected narrative fragments, The Nature of Blood is a reminder of the missing stories, the voices?marginalised and often racialized?that Western history has consistently failed to include in its accounts of the past and arguably its present. 606 $aLiteraturwissenschaft 606 $aEnglish literature 606 $aCaryl Phillips 606 $aEuropean history 606 $aeuropean tribalism 606 $aBlack atlantic writer 606 $aEuropäischer Tribalismus 606 $aHerkunft 606 $aOrigins 606 $aZugehörigkeit 606 $abelongings 606 $aexclusion 615 4$aLiteraturwissenschaft 615 4$aEnglish literature 615 4$aCaryl Phillips 615 4$aEuropean history 615 4$aeuropean tribalism 615 4$aBlack atlantic writer 615 4$aEuropäischer Tribalismus 615 4$aHerkunft 615 4$aOrigins 615 4$aZugehörigkeit 615 4$abelongings 615 4$aexclusion 676 $a823.914 700 $aFesta$b Maria$4aut$01603520 702 $aMelikoglu$b Koray$4edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961093803321 996 $aHistory and Race in Caryl Phillips's The Nature of Blood$94413600 997 $aUNINA
