dc.description.abstractRalph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952), a seminal work of the 20th century, and Flying Home and Other Stories (19961), a less known collection of short stories, both employ an intricately layered system of animal symbolism that contributes to their thematic complexity by throwing into relief racial and social inequalities. The protagonist of the novel and the characters of the individual short stories struggle to find their identity in the American society of the 20th century. I will argue that animal imagery as presented and interwoven in the works challenges the racist stereotypes created by the white-dominated society and highlights the difficulties of the young protagonists who are socialized into it.hu_HU
