This article delves into the portrayal of masculinity and cultural identity in diaspora literature, with a focus on Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's novel Americanah as a primary case study.
Based on Connell's theory of hegemonic masculinity, the study between hands aims to investigate how cultural expectations and power dynamics shape the construction of masculinity within Nigerian diasporic communities.
Through meticulous analysis of the male characters, the study uncovers the nuanced negotiations of male protagonists with hegemonic norms in their quest for identity and belonging.
Key findings underscore how the interplay of race, gender and immigrant experience contributes in shaping both individual and collective identities.
The analysis illuminates instances of resistance and subversion against hegemonic masculinity, while also highlighting the transformative potential of cultural hybridity in redefining traditional notions of masculinity within diaspora literature.
Substantially, this research contributes to a deeper comprehension of the multifaceted dynamics of masculinity and cultural identity, as it offers new and valuable insights into the complexities of diasporic experiences and their profound roles in shaping identity within the diaspora literature genre.
Eventually, this study opens avenues for further research into the intersection of gender, culture and identity in contemporary literature, fostering a deeper understanding of the diverse narratives and experiences within diaspora communities.
