[edit] What I'm Working On Now

I'm thinking about C.J. Cherryh's treatment of family throughout her novels, particularly with regard to the recurring theme of an outsider finding his place. I would like to find an appropriate way to integrate some discussion of family into the Major Themes section of her article.

Possible topics include Cherryh's treatment of:

  • What family is
  • Family-like groups composed of unrelated people
  • Created families
  • Inclusion of outsiders in existing families
  • Hierarchies within families
  • Family honor and reputation
  • Family politics
  • Political families
  • Family strife and tension
  • Families as burdens or sources of discouragement
  • Independence or individualism and family
  • Rejection of one's family
  • Loss of one's family
  • Living without a family
