What are the characteristics of Martha in Cherokee historical novels?

I'm not sure specifically which Cherokee historical novels are directly related to Martha. But you could start by looking into local Cherokee libraries or cultural centers. They might have some lesser - known works that feature a character named Martha in a Cherokee historical context.

One common theme is the struggle against cultural assimilation. The Cherokee people have a rich culture, and in historical fiction, you often see them fighting to preserve it in the face of outside forces trying to make them conform to a different way of life.

In Cherokee stories, the evil women are often portrayed as being in opposition to the values held dear by the Cherokee people. For example, they may disrupt the harmony that is so important in Cherokee culture. They might be jealous of those who have good relationships or positive qualities. Their actions are usually aimed at causing chaos and destruction. They could be shown as having a menacing appearance, with perhaps a cold or cruel look in their eyes. And their speech might be filled with lies and manipulation, using words to twist the truth and lead others astray.

The main characters in Cherokee stories often have strong connections to nature. For instance, if it's an animal character like the Wolf, it represents loyalty and fierceness. These characters usually carry important moral lessons within the stories.

If we consider the Great Spirit as the main character, it is all - powerful. It has the ability to create out of nothing, which is a very important characteristic. It is also wise, as it creates a world with balance, like having different seasons and various types of animals that coexist in harmony.

If we take Rabbit as an example, he is very clever. He can outsmart his opponents with his quick thinking. He is also quite mischievous, always getting into situations where he has to use his wits to get out.

One common theme is the connection to the sea. Since Martha's Vineyard is an island, the sea plays a huge role in the lives of the characters in historical fiction. Another theme is family heritage. Many stories explore how families have passed down traditions and values over generations on the island.

Historical novels often aim to educate readers about the past, with well - developed characters that are shaped by the historical context. For example, 'The Name of the Rose' is set in a medieval monastery and explores various aspects of that time. While historical erotic novels deviate from this noble purpose. They tend to focus on sexual content which is not in line with good literary and moral values.

Often, Poland historical novels are rich in detail about the political situations of different historical periods. For example, they might describe how the monarchy functioned, or how different noble families vied for power.

Centennial historical novels often have complex plots. They typically span a long period, like a hundred years, so they can cover multiple generations and historical events. This allows for a rich tapestry of characters and their development over time.
