dc.description.abstract | This research paper examines the notion of identity as relational with reference to Michelle Obama's autobiographical memoir Becoming.The study investigates that identity of an individual is molded in association with the factors such as other individual,gender norms,topography, societal mores,culture values, etc. rather than in isolation.Taking theoretical concept of relational self as proposed by Jean Baker Miller, this research projects how Michelle Obama’s memoir articulates her identity not as absolute and monolithic phenomena but as adynamic, relational spectacle.Obama’s identity as a black woman, the First Lady, an American individual, a mother of the children as expressed in the memoir sheds light on the fact that herself hood contour son society, geography, politics, culture, and other social attributes together with personal traits. These factors, however,are interrelated and interdependent and constitute human identity. | en_US |
