Abstract/Contents

Abstract: For all its thematic complexity and literary prowess, Asian-American literature continues to be categorized and dismissed as cultural artifact. Unfortunately, the application of critical literary theory within the context of Asian-American works remains largely incomplete. In this thesis, I approach three stories from Hisaye Yamamoto's anthology "Seventeen Syllables" through the lens of critical feminist and historicist theory.
