The study is qualitative, using the descriptive-analyticc design. It is deemed to find out what the journey undertaken by the character of the story is all about. The archetypal approach, the socio-cultural approach, and the humanistic approach to literature were utilized to embody and analyze the journey motif in the novel. The following summary of findings is presented: 1.From the Philippines, the protagonist of the novel. Solomon King Arrived in Chicago,traveled to other places in the United States, and finally traveled back to settle in Chicago. In short, he went around in a circle. 2.

The symbolic significance of the journey is evinced through cultural awareness, nationalistic awakening, and self-realization. 3a. Culturalawrenessis manifested in three ways: (1) cultural festivity (awake, children's games, Filipino sports, etc.) and cultural valus ( hospitality, Frugality, generosity, industry and hard work, etc.), (2) material culture (Filipino handicrafts, Filipino food, Filipino attire, etc.), and (3) oral literature ( rhymes, jingles and riddles) and language(Filipino terms). 3b. Nationalistic awakening is suggested through an interest manifested by the characters of the novel in Philippine history or dates and events significant to the country's history development. 3c. Self-realization is achieved when Sol remarks, " I don't look like nobody but myself." All his life, he had though the looked like Robert Taylor and had hoped that someone would see the obvious"similarity" between the two men and remark about it. With his self-realization, Sol is able to shift the focus from himself to other people. He is finally able to complete his journey, to come home at the end of the day, after a long, tiresome journey. 4. Solomon King's journey is, in man respects, similar to the Christian's journey. Unless the Christian comes to a realization of the truth about himself, he will just so around in circles, unable to reach his desired destination. | |
