Analysis from the perspective of myth and archetypal criticism found that her third novel, Song of Solomon, depicts African myth of flying and the archetype of hero's initiation. In the novel, Morrison not only employs the myth of flying as her structuring device, but also treats it as the symbol of Afro-Americans physical and spiritual freedom. In the frame of searching flying ancestors, Morrison portrays how the protagonist, Milkman, experiences the archetypal hero's initiation phrases: separation, transformation and return. In the novel, by employing the myth of flying and the archetype of hero's initiation, Morrison implies that in order to get spiritual freedom,Afro-Americans must return to tradition and find their cultural root.展开更多
