Amy Tan's "The Joy Luck Club" And Alexis De Tocqueville's "Democracy In America": Contrast
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The primary difference between Amy Tan's "The Joy Luck Club" and Alexis de Tocqueville's "Democracy in America" is that they were written generations apart; other than that fact, however, each author effectively addresses the human ills associated with seeking emotional contentment and economic satisfaction. Found within these two books are specific portions dedicated to this particular aspect of humanity; for Tan, it is "Two Kinds," while for Tocqueville it is "Equality and Materialism." Delving deep into the recesses of Tan and Tocqueville's social conscious, one readily finds that while each author portrays many of the same idiosyncrasies that exist in both past and contemporary societies, they arrive from completely divergent origins. No additional sources cited.

Amy Tan's "The Joy Luck Club": PsychologicalTheories/Perspectives
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. The presence of cultural heritage in Chinese-American life is not as significant as it once was, with the overall incorporation not being of high priority to the younger generations. One may readily surmise that this unexpected and often unwelcome secularism has virtually everything to do with the manner in which the passage of time becomes such a significantly painful occurrence for each mother's personal experience. The writer discusses psychological theories and perspectives, as well as the concept of age, as they relate to Amy Tan's "The Joy Luck Club." Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Amy Tan’s “Joy Luck Club” and the Mother-Daughter Bond in All Cultures:
[ send me this paper ]
This 12 page report discusses the quest for personal identity that is so deeply interwoven in the relationship between mothers and daughters. The reason the Amy Tan book and its subsequent movie were so successful was the fact that those relationships served as examples of how women, young and old, strive to place themselves beyond the control of strong mothers and become individuals. Countless stories throughout history document the evolution of the mother-daughter relationship. In the twentieth (twenty-first) century, the stories have often been set in the context of developments in psychoanalytical and feminist theory. Of equal value, the stories of mothers’ and daughters’ understanding of one another in the context of their unique culture is important. Whether or not that culture is one of first and second generation immigrants or the differences between women born into different generations of the same fundamentalist religion, the relationship of mother and daughter transcends and defines all other relationships. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Amy Tan/Generation in "Two Kinds"
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that analyzes this short story of generational conflict. The writer argues that in the modern era, the rapidity of social change has made the background of each new generation subtly different from its predecessor, resulting in a breach of understanding that is commonly known as a "generation gap." Amy Tan shows in her poignant short story "Two Kinds" how the severity of this gap increases when mother and daughter come from two different cultures. No additional sources cited.
