This study investigates the ways in which the concepts of race and color, buttressed by the force of law, operate as subtexts in the literature of the plantocracy of the Americas. Selected narratives by William Faulkner, Jean Toomer and Jean Rhys are examined as exemplars of works influenced by what I identify as the "legal effect" of miscegenation discourse, an invisible phenomenon materializing as a "race code" in these narratives.

This study investigates the ways in which the concepts of race and color, buttressed by the force of law, operate as subtexts in the literature of the plantocracy of the Americas.

Miscegenation discourse as a distinct legal genre gives us a new framework in which to read its function in the literary narrative. Additionally, to read the interracial subtext, I use a methodology primarily available within a comparative thrust where mixture is a culture's norm or where discursivity is problematized. I also appropriate a methodology which recognizes the voided presences of power in the American narrative.

A revealing precursor of twentieth century miscegenation discourse is Mark Twain's Pudd'nhead Wilson and those Extraordinary Twins (New York: Penguin, 1989). Recognizing it as illustrative of a political unconscious, the legal effect, and a pervasive sense of "normalcy" that finds expression and definition through the coded language of "race," I use Pudd'nhead Wilson to begin the investigation of race codes, calling attention to the tragedy of the American experience.

Analysis of miscegenation discourse exposes law's effects within the supposed innocence of language and creates new readings of the works in question. The study of Faulkner, Rhys and Toomer recognizes that the social construction of miscegenation is closely imbricated in the construction of the legal categories of white and black and that language itself is implicated in the reification of these social constructions. In these selected narratives, when race essentialism is treated as a creation of legal language rather than as a biological essence, gaps and avoidances speak new voices and new meanings. In the works under consideration, this "spoken silence" breaks new ground in understanding.
