This research paper: This is a 5 page paper describing the lessons learned by the protagonists in Alice Walker’s “The Flowers” and Ralph Ellison’s “Battle Royal”. In Alice Walker’s “The Flowers” and Ralph Ellison’s “Battle Royal”, the protagonists each awakened from a naiveté regarding their “place” as African Americans within the society of the American South. The little girl in “The Flowers” provides the reader with a more subtle and compassionate outlook at the situation of African Americans as the girl matures into a women from her knowledge and realization of what has occurred in her environment and what ends a beautiful summer for her and pushes her into maturity. The narrator in “Battle Royal” experiences a much more brutal realization that he was naïve and blind, and blind folded, in his outlook of race relations in the South. Both stories tell of the unfortunate realities of the South which changed the lives and teach “life” lessons to the protagonists. “The Flowers” provides a much more subtle approach however as “Battle Royal” tells of the brutal realities which the protagonists must face in their daily battles as African Americans in the South. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
