Abstract or Introduction

My term paper is aimed at finding out, how Meena’s identity changes throughout the book and how growing up with two cultures affects this process. The analysis mainly sections into four parts: The first step will be to explain Freud’s fundamental theory, including his significant technical terms. After that, I will explain how the English and Indian culture are presented in the novel. Then I will transfer Freud’s hypotheses to Meena’s behaviour by finding appropriate examples in the novel. In the end I will complete my work by summing up my findings as well as reflecting them.
