Examining the changing nature of racial politics in the 1940's, McKay Jenkins measures its impact on white Southern literature, history, and culture. Jenkins focuses on four white Southern writers--W. J. Cash, William Alexander Percy, Lillian Smith, and Carson McCullers 606 $aAmerican literature$zSouthern States$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLiterature and society$zSouthern States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aAfrican Americans in literature 606 $aRace in literature 606 $aSex in literature 607 $aSouthern States$xRace relations$xHistoriography 607 $aSouthern States$xIntellectual life$y1865- 615 0$aAmerican literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 615 0$aAfrican Americans in literature. 615 0$aRace in literature. 615 0$aSex in literature. 676 $a810.9/975/09044 700 $aJenkins$b McKay$f1963-$01247447 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825424903321 996 $aThe South in Black and white$93920219 997 $aUNINA
