In analyzing the two stories mentioned in the title, this essay examines F.O'Connor's poetics of the grotesque that superimposes different pictures in order to create a new one. The sacrament of the Eucharist in the first story and the symbol of the Artificial Nigger in the second partake, at the same time, of a sacramental, Catholic sensibility and a scriptural, Protestant one.

Abstract
In analyzing the two stories mentioned in the title, this essay examines F.O'Connor's poetics of the grotesque that superimposes different pictures in order to create a new one. The sacrament of the Eucharist in the first story and the symbol of the Artificial Nigger in the second partake, at the same time, of a sacramental, Catholic sensibility and a scriptural, Protestant one.File allegati a questo prodotto
