In this essay I would like to focus on three of Toni Morrison’s novels in which she uses or misuses Biblical names for both male and female characters as well as for places. In Song of Solomon, Tar Baby and Paradise I am going to compare and contrast the names and places with their Biblical equivalents and analyze the complexity of naming and misnaming. Trough these comparisons I wish to shed light on the parallels and contrasts, as well as certain coincidences with the aim of establishing the sturcture of Toni Morrison’s method of using the Bible with special focus on Biblical names and places.
