مشخصات پژوهش

This study examines the formation and transformation of identity in a postcolonial context. By integrating Edward Said’s postcolonial theory and William Glasser’s Choice Theory, the research explores how societal power dynamics, historical legacies, and personal decisions shape the identities of the novel’s characters. The analysis highlights key themes such as betrayal, sacrifice, and cultural hybridity, focusing on how Amir’s journey reflects the tension between individual agency and societal expectations. Through a close reading of the text, the study investigates the interplay between external constructs like cultural hierarchies and internal struggles like guilt and redemption. This interdisciplinary approach provides fresh insights into how identity is negotiated in postcolonial literature, emphasizing the enduring impact of historical and cultural narratives on personal and collective identity formation.
