Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris
This  study  was  conducted  to  highlight  the  reconstruction  of  South  Africans  identity which  was  formulated  through  resistance  from  the  perspective  of  J.M.  Coetzee,  a  novelist.  This  study  addressed  the  research  questions  that  examined  the  impact  of  colonialism on the  black  South  Africans  identity based  on  the  selected  novels  by  J.M.  Coetzee and how he portrayed the idea of resistance and identity reconstruction through his   fictional characters.  The  data  was collected  from a  critical analysis of five  selected novels  employing  the postcolonial concepts,  identity, and  resistance. The  Post-Colonial Theory  was   employed  to  critically  analyse  the  characters  which  reflect  the  concept  of identity and  resistance. The analysis was conducted on the characters′ acts, actions, and the setting, in  particular in South Africa during the apartheid (1948-1991). The findings showed   that   South    Africans   identity   was   affected   by   apartheid   and   colonialism. According  to  the   first  objective,  all the  characters  in the  novels,  in  particular  the  main characters had  experienced a significant impact of colonialism and racial discrimination. Therefore,  the  South   Africans  tried  to  reconstruct  their  original  identity  and  cultural heritage. Referring to  the second objective, the analysis of all the selected novels revealed that most characters went  through a number of stages in reconstructing their identities. As for the final research objective,  it was discovered that the characters had shown different ways of resistance towards the principle  of colonialism and Apartheid. From the findings, it  can  be  concluded  that  South  Africans   resisted  the  hegemony  of  colonialism  and apartheid.  This  has  resulted  in  their  thoughts   of  reconstructing  their   identity,  thus, informed others the understanding of how important an  identity is in South Africa, which was   marginalized   because  of  colonialism.   The    implication  of  this   study   indicates Coetzee’s capabilities at achieving the true sense of  identity through his novels to show the  resistance  representing  a  new  experienced  voice  in   reconstructing  South  Africans’ identity.
