dc.description.abstractThe research aims to investigate the role of Memory in Edwidge Danticat's 1994 novel Breath ,Eyes, Memory and how Sophia's mother identity was destroyed, in contrast to the radical act made by Sophie the first spoken woman who dared to speak on behalf of all Haitian women. Therefore, this study will analyze Edwidge Daniticat's novel as a postcolonial production. Therefore, this research will address the significance of trauma, violence, memory, and their influence on the two major characters, Sophia and her mother Martine. In fact, Edwidge Daniticat's novel is regarded as a representative example of Intergenerational trauma theory in literary studies, that discusses the term trauma and highlights the Haitian female struggle, In addition, this study will explore the feminist viewpoint in connection to the impact of postcolonial feminism on Diasporic women. Meanwhile The thesis takes a psychoanalytic approach to trauma analysis in connection to memory, identity, As well as the application of Postcolonial Feminist theory in Edwidge Danticat’s novel. Most previous studies on Breath,Eyes,Memory focuses on one of the traumas experienced in the novel by the characters, The research is expanded to cover not only one but multiple traumas and the role of the Diaspora that added doubts to the heart of the Haitian-American women to start questioning her society beliefs and looking at traditions from a different angle, which marked the beginning of a feminist Movement.en_US
