Library's collection Library's IT development CancelThis study aims at discussing and finding the effects of the white blindness
towards the characters in Saramago?s Blindness. To discover the effects of the
white blindness, I will use literary approach by means of conflicts and
characterization. The characters that will be analyzed deemed to be affected by the
white blindness are the doctor, the doctor?s wife, the girl with dark glasses, the
wife of the first blind man, the leader of hoodlums, and the old man with the black
eye patch. As a result, there will be four effects of the white blindness; they are
status and role disruptions, resisting women, marriage betrayal, and stealing and
banditry.
