The Politics and Aesthetics of New Negro Literature (Hardcover)

Black writers and intellectuals struggled to articulate an aesthetic for African American literature and to define the appropriate relationship between an African American literary movement and the racial politics of the United States in the 1920s and 1930s. This volume contains examples of the literature of the 1920s-one element of a black cultural movement that included music, art, and theater. These critics explored the Southern and African roots of black culture, and the impact of race and urbanization on the African American experience.
