الملخص

This thesis envisions the contribution of Toni Morisson‘s ninth narrative A Mercy(2008) in opening new dimensions to re-read and re-consider the pre-racial time in Early America.The rhizomatic inclination, which is the mechanism through which Morrison passes her advocacy to un-ended, anti-restricted, and anti-hierarchical readings of history, is extended to reach ecocritical, narratological, and contextual plateaus of investigation. As such, Gilles Deleuze‘s and Felix Guttari‘s concept of the rhizome is re-envisioned, in this thesis,to out spread to br and new articulations. The study integrates A Mercy‘s ecological, narratological, and contextual spheres rhizomatically,so that they work as the emblems through which Morrison endorses her call for new re-readings of the past.In particular, I re-address Morrison‘s A Mercy by enunciatinga rhizomatic reading of the natural world,narration, and other contextual presentations. This reading is set to be of a metonymic function in passing Morrison‘s advocacy. Moreover,locating a rhizomatic affinity in my the sisopens up novel textual and contextual dimensions in A Mercytran scending it from being a literary text to an aleatoric text with external links and further readings.My argument follows an interdisciplinary approach as it engages Ecocriticism, Narratology, and Postmodernism. Also, the theory of Rhizomeas perceived by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari is of substantial presence in this proposed reading.
