The Harlem Renaissance, or New Negro Movement, began attracting extensive academic attention in the 1990s as scholars discovered how complex, significant, and fascinating it was. Drawing on African American texts, archives, unpublished writings, and contemporaneous European discourses, this book highlights both the canonical figures of the New Negro Movement and African American culture such as W. E. B. Dubois, Booker T. Washington, Alain Locke, and Richard Wright, and other writers such as Wallace Thurman, who have not received as much scholarly attention despite their significant contributions to the movement. Anna Pochmara offers a striking combination of thorough literary analysis and historicist investigation in order to provide novel insights into one of the most important periods of black history in the United States. 410 0$aAmerican studies (Amsterdam, Netherlands) 606 $aAmerican literature$xAfrican American authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aAfrican Americans$xIntellectual life 607 $aUnited States$xCivilization$xAfrican influences 615 0$aAmerican literature$xAfrican American authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xIntellectual life. 676 $a810.9896073 700 $aPochmara$b Anna$01478073 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789770703321 996 $aThe making of the new negro$93693624 997 $aUNINA
