摘要

Toni Morrison is the most famous American novelist and book editor. At the same time, she is also the first African-American author who won the Nobel Prize in Literature. Her most famous work Beloved delineates a tragic fate of black slave Sethe. Amy Denver, a white indentured servant whom Sethe encountered on her way to escape, is easily overlooked by readers. However, in the novel, Amy Denver does play an important role as a bridge between whites and blacks. Through close reading, details of Amy Denver healing Sethe physically and mentally and her contribution to continuity and redemption of the black will be discussed in the research.
