The rediscovery of Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching
God, first published in 1937 but subsequently out-of-print for
decades, marks one of the most dramatic chapters in
African-American literature and Women's Studies. Its popularity
owes much to the lyricism of the prose, the pitch-perfect rendition
of black vernacular English, and the memorable characters--most
notably, Janie Crawford. Collecting the most widely cited and
influential essays published on Hurston's classic novel over the
last quarter century, this Casebook presents contesting viewpoints
by Hazel Carby, Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Barbara Johnson, Carla
Kaplan, Daphne Lamothe, Mary Helen Washington, and Sherley Anne
Williams. The volume also includes a statement Hurston submitted to
a reference book on twentieth-century authors in 1942. As it
records the major debates the novel has sparked on issues of
language and identity, feminism and racial politics, A Casebook
charts new directions for future critics and affirms the classic
status of the novel.
