In a critical look at the practice of teaching culture contrastively in the classroom, Michael Guest (2002:155,160) presents a distressingly long list of the potential pitfalls and hazards: Eva reads Sula's insistence as selfishness; contrastively, Nel interprets Sula's unabashed propensity for explorations of self, sensuality, and sexuality as her friend's "act[ing] like a man. In its English derivation, the word ethnic has "retained its quality of defining another people contrastively and often negatively" (Sollors 25). |
