Afro-Caribbean Women's Writing and Early American Literature, Paperback / softback Book

Afro-Caribbean Women's Writing and Early American Literature Paperback / softback

Edited by Latoya Jefferson-James

Paperback / softback

Description

Afro-Caribbean Women's Writing and Early American Literature is both pedagogical and critical.

The text begins by re-evaluating the poetry of Wheatley for its political commentary, demonstrates how Hurston bridges several literary genres and geographies, and introduces Black women writers of the Caribbean to some American audiences.

It sheds light on lesser-discussed Black women playwrights of the Harlem Renaissance and re-evaluates the turn-of-the century concept, Noble Womanhood in light of the Cult of Domesticity.
