“Pearl S. Buck’s East Wind: West Wind: Women’s Oppression and Deconstruction of the Patriarchal Structure of Domination.” Studies in English Language ＆ Literature 37.2 (2011): 19-41. East Wind: West Wind (1930) is a work which is based on the patriarchal structure of domination focused as a symbol of women’s oppression. Pearl Buck points out a problem of racial prejudice between western and eastern people. Humans should not be discriminated against because of differences in their skin color and lifestyle. The differences are only mutual equality embodied in an affirmative, equal conception, not because of a vertical and negative conception. It was only the result of accepting differences that their marriage succeeded. The baby-birth is a product of the fact that they ‘re accepted it as a difference. Thus, the baby is a amalgamation of the East and the West. Pearl Buck says that people should not reject the differences they have. They should admit them, and embrace them. Ultimately, it might lead them to embrace everything in their life. She also emphasized it should not be a dominative-subordinative relationship, but a mutual, respectful, and equal relationship. What we are pursuing is finding out our form of homogeneity in a different form of heterogeneity through our whole lives. This is the right task of our life to solve the future society. In this, as we are adopting and respecting our differences, the attitude that we are going to find out a true value of life is getting closer, resulting in love and co-existence. (Sejong University)
