China is often considered
as a land of spectacle: the Great wall and the scenes of clay making made
people look at China with awe and wonder. The fundamental objective of my
dissertation is not to re-represent the common notions of China but to ponder
over the unknown; the social and cultural space of China that is not known for
the general public.
The major concern of the
dissertation is to analyse the Chinese elements as shown by Pearl Buck in her
novels ‘Novels are Letter from Peking’ and ‘Good Earth’. This opens a way to
analyse a picture of China as witnessed by Pearl Buck during her life time. It
also opens up several images of the world war and the peculiarities and
complexities of family life in the scenario of the world war.
My dissertation thus aims to
give voice of the voiceless; the inner most cultural realms and outlook of
China.
