Abstract: Zora Neale Hurston (1891-1960) is an iconic figure in the 20th century American literature. She is regarded as mother of black female writing. Their Eyes Were Watching God is her most popular novel that addresses for the first time in black literature the inner self-consciousness of a black female. She brings the issue of black female’s confidence and respect to public attention, and changes the gender pattern of black literature through the character of a black female who acquires the ability to make self-search, self-express and self-affirmation. This paper is a text-based study on the complexity of black Americans from the perspective of post-colonialism. With an analysis of the marriage and growth of Janie Crawford, it explores black females’ difficult path towards their self-consciousness and self-construction. 

 

Key words: black female; post-colonialism; self-consciousness; self-identity
