This seminar paper will also focus on the similarities and distinctions between the two mentioned characters and the topic identity including the associated term hybridity, for example. Therefore, to analyze Tayo’s and Rocky’s identity or search for it, one has to examine their life career and relations with other persons because “ a person’s identity is influenced by others recognition of that identity ” (Jenlink & Townes 2009: 127). It is an important section because “ essence, the individual’s actions and character define his identity” (Jenlink & Townes 2009: 127). The first part of the paper will focus on demonstrating the development of these two major characters in Ceremony. Both are somehow caught in the middle because of living in-between.
His cousin Rocky, on the other hand, is a full-blood Indian, but does everything to be a part of the “white world”. Tayo feels ashamed of himself because of his white ancestry. They show the problems occurring for persons that are “caught between two worlds”. The latter is one of the major themes appealing in Leslie Marmon Silko’s Ceremony and this seminar paper will focus on the two characters Tayo and Rocky. In our life everybody asks himself: Who am I? The answers to that question generate everyone’s self-perception which will be always part of one’s identity. Identity in Leslie Marmon Silko’s Ceremony The distinctions between Tayo and RockyĤ.
