| Abstract: | Teenagers are generally full of vitality and energy. This advantage allows them to conquer the world literally, experience new insights, gain wisdom, and acquire knowledge. J.D. Salinger’s teenage protagonist Holden Caulfield, goes through a similar ordeal as he explores the complex human world through his teenage eyes. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye revolves around Holden’s encounters with people belonging to different backgrounds, professions, age, and gender. Holden does a meticulous analysis of the people he comes across, and in the process, notices the general psychological characteristics, feelings, and behavioral traits of mankind. He divides the people around him into two categories, the ‘phonies,’ and the authentics. Holden refers to a phony as someone who is superficial, hypocrite, fake, or has manifestations of conformity. A person’s age, gender, and occupation, play an important role in how Holden interacts with them. He alters and modifies his own identity, tone, style, and behavior according to the personality and background of the person he is interacting with. The purpose of this dissertation is to explore how a teenager of sixteen years old forms his generalized opinions on human nature based on his observations on particular people around him. Since Holden himself is the narrator of the novel, his thoughts and views on people are expressed to the reader through interior monologue. |
