| Résumé : |
The current research traces the manhood and the remarkable decisions of Isaac McCaslin,
Ike, considered as the Bear's central character, just as Old Ben, the eponymous character
symbolizes the relation to nature and thus to life. Therefore, Ike found himself confronted to
glorify the human values inculcated by his mentor Sam Fathers, chiefly: The concept of
Landownership, the concept of death and the concept of original sin. For Ike, the land is
cursed; slavery and the civil war were the result of the curse. The primary objective of "The
Bear” is Ike's moral awakening. On one level, Ike shares the Native American view that the
land belongs to no one but instead exists for communal use, while Ike strongly believes that
the land itself is cursed by the legacy of slavery; this feeling is intensified when he learns
about the incest committed by his grandfather. For Ike, the only way to escape this curse—
and the guilt that haunts his heritage—is to relinquish his inheritance. The dilemma of the
moral choice to reject a legacy of corruption led Ike to free himself from the burden of his
family’s history |
