Abstract

This thesis examines two factors in the process of growing up, through two 20th century American novels, J.D.Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye and S.E. Hinton's The Outsiders. I will prove that the time of adolescence is as hard in the higher part of the society as in the lower parts, and that adolescents - as all people - need aims, to love and be loved in order to live. Using the primary texts, the investigation of special fields of history, society and psychology, I will demonstrate that the two mentioned factors help to show what it means to be a grown up and that people must grow up in their thinking, their hearts and their relationships, to learn to put other people in front of them in order to be an adult.
