Description
This book represents the culmination of over 150 years of literary achievement by the most diverse ethnic group in the United States.
Diverse because this group of ethnic Americans includes those whose ancestral roots branch out to East Asia, Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Western Asia.
Even within each of these regions, there exist vast differences in languages, cultures, religions, political systems, and colonial histories.
From the earliest publication in 1887 to the latest in 2021, this dictionary celebrates the incredibly rich body of fiction, poetry, memoirs, plays, and children's literature. Historical Dictionary of Asian American Literature and Theater, Second Edition contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography.
The dictionary section has more than 700 cross-referenced entries on genres, major terms, and authors.
This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about this topic.
