本論文研究童妮˙莫里森的《爵士樂》與《家》中男性特質如何藉由與配偶及手足等女性的互動而重構其黑人男性特質。在《爵士樂》中，爵士樂的音樂結構顯示了喬的黑人男性特是由於情人們的安慰而獲得重構。在《家》中，法蘭克的黑人男性特質重構乃是藉由妹妹的撫慰。

In this thesis, I will focus on Jazz and Home to examine black masculinity developed in the relationships with women, spouses, and siblings through men’s interactions with women. In Jazz, Joe’s masculinity is shown to be re-formed with the help of his lovers in the structure of jazz music. In Home, Frank’s masculinity is re-formed due to his sister’s consoling.
