Citace
Popis Satire has always played a vital part in Ishmael Reed's multicultural poetics which vigorously criticizes the closing of the monocultural mind. This contribution proposes that multicultural satire of Ishmael Reed can be divided into two modes: radical and argument-based. I argue that the emergence of the new consensus on race in the U. S. correlates not only with the emergence of a new, subtler racism but also with the emergence of a new, subtler mode of satire in the multicultural texts of Ishmael Reed, namely in his novels Japanese by Spring (1993) and Juice! (2011). This contribution thus presents how his radical and argument-based satire differ, why the latter needs to be more complex to effectively criticize new racism, and how such a change could facilitate the opening of the monocultural mind.
