Description

Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Wuppertal, language: English, abstract: Beloved is a novel with many interesting themes which are worth examining. The following paper deals with the significance of numbers in Toni Morrison's Beloved. Numbers play an important role in this novel.

The end of the paper is composed of the conclusion in chapter
