This dissertation utilizes a comparative analysis of Asian American and Arab American poetry in order to examine how the works produce mosaic portraits of these peoples. The subjects addressed by the three Asian American and three Arab American poets selected vary in their scope from displacement, identity, war, assimilation, fragmentation, and cultural differences between their home countries and America. These varied experiences operate as mosaic pieces that contribute to the construction of identity for immigrants. The poets selected are Marilyn Chin, Yearn Hong Choi, Li-Young Lee, Laila Halaby, Lisa Suhair Majaj, and Naomi Shihab Nye.The critical readings of selected poems are set within the existing scholarship, as it is applied to the subject matter and approach of the poets. The study relies heavily on cultural criticism, applying it to a largely overlooked area in critical scholarship: the poetry within Asian American and Arab American studies.The object of the study is to show the parallel concerns of two broad groups of immigrants in specific times in American history that brought challenges to both groups individually in how they were viewed by Americans: for Asian Americans, it is the aftermath of WWII and for Arab Americans, it is the fallout from September 11, 2001. The goals are to (1) highlight themes and motifs that reveal a record of responses to xenophobia or racial conflations and stereotypes that are erroneous; (2) challenge hegemonic discourses concerning the groups themselves; (3) examine how theme, form, diction, and figurative language contribute to show the navigation of identity; (4) analyze portrayals of differing traditions and the representation of women within their respective populations.
