 note = {P(論文), Jazz has its origin in various kinds of Afro-American music such as the drums of Congo Square in New Orleans, the field hollers, work songs, shuffle shouts in church, spirituals, blues, ragtime and so on. In other words,jazz in its first stages embraced all the memories of Afro-American history from slavery through the end of the 19th century. Those memories and music were carried into the North at the turn of the century with the great migration of Afro-American people. As the result, jazz became a synthetic music of the Southern rural memories and the new urban consciousness. It expressed not only their past sorrow, but their present anger or hope. It expressed what they wanted to but did not or could not say. Therefore, Afro-American people got rapidly absorbed in this music. Though older people were at first disgusted with this "lowdown"music, even they came to realise its healing power eventually. Jazz, Toni Morrison's sixth novel, is neither a story of the development of jazz music nor a story of jazz musicians. It is Morrison's re-creation of a cance of jazz music. She achieves this through the story of the middle-aged couple, Violet and Joe Trace. The novel opens with a scandalous triangle affair. On the New Year's Day of 1926, Joe Trace, a cosmetics salesman of fifty-odd shoto his eighteen-year-old sweetheart Dorcas at the rent party in Harlem, New York. His wife Violet slashed at the cream colored face of the dead girl with a knife at the funeral. Morrison traces the sources of this tragedy back to the days after Reconstruction when black people suffered terrible poverty and violence. The Traces are an example of hundreds of thousands of people who left the South in the belief that they would finally get freedom and equality in the City. While they realized that the North was not a heaven either, they found the charm of the bustle in the City irresistible. Such experiences are captured in the new music called jazz, to which each character in the novel shows a full response. Dorcas is awoken to her sexuality. Joe is reminded of his youth. Alice Manfred, the conservative aunt of Dorcas struggles against the spell of this music and gradually succumbs to it. The reconciliation is brought forth while Joe and Violet are dancing together to the music. Morrison lively describes the atmosphere of Harlem in the twenties where nearly every aspect of daily life was accompanied with jazz music, and emphasizes the significance of jazz as an expression of Afro-American experience of this period.},
