THE CHILD CHARACTER IN ADULT LITERATURE presents a unique and
comprehensive application of an amalgam of the sociological
literary and three psychological approaches to six carefully
selected Caribbean novels. The six novels included represent the
West Indian diversity: authors from different races, genders,
classes and cultures, offering scholars a broad view of how
Caribbean fiction reflects the complexities of the human situation
in the geographical location that goes by the appellation "The West
Indies." The elements of the Sociological approach, Jean Piaget's
Cognitive theory, Erik Erikson's Affective premises and Robert
Sears' Behavioural hypotheses have been integrated in the
interpretation of the readings of the Psychosocial signification of
the child character within the Caribbean experience. This study
examines the child character in post- emancipation and colonial
West-Indian fiction in order to determine his position in that
society and his role as a literary tool for inquiring into not only
the plight of the child but also the racial and class disparities
and struggles in the Caribbean during the enfranchisement
(post-slavery) and colonial periods.
