Scriptotherapy In Leslie Marmon Silko’s Ceremony And Linda Hogan’s Solar Storms
Authors : Benabed Fella .
Abstract
The article attempts to analyze Leslie Marmon Silko’s Ceremony and Linda Hogan’s Solar Storms as scriptotherapies (writing cures), with related narrative, ecological and spiritual healing patterns. These testimonial novels denounce the quincentenary oppression of Native Americans and the depredation of their environment. According to the authors, the treatment of injured minds and souls lies in a reconnection to the community, the land and animals, with the help of stories told by tribal elders, as preservers of communal cohesion and mentors of younger generations. As ecofeminists (ecologists and feminists), Silko and Hogan consider that the patriarchal system is responsible for both the subjugation of woman and land. A powerful mother archetype hence prevails in the two novels, as the backbone of the oral gynocratic culture.
