The Souls of Black Folk (AmazonClassics Edition) Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

First published in 1903, this groundbreaking work is a cornerstone of African American literary history and a foundational text in the field of sociology.

In these fourteen essays, W. E. B. Du Bois introduces and explores the concept of "double-consciousness"-a term he uses to describe the experience of living as an African American and having a "sense of always looking at one's self through the eyes of others."Though an examination of Black life in post-Civil War America, The Souls of Black Folk has had a lasting impact on civil rights and the discussion of race in the United States. Revised edition: Previously published as The Souls of Black Folk, this edition of The Souls of Black Folk (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.
