Literary and Sociopolitical Writings of the Black Diaspora in the
Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries traces the historiography of
literary and sociopolitical movements of the Black Diaspora in the
writings of key political figures. It comparatively and
dialogically examines such movements as Pan-Africanism, Garveyism,
Indigenisme, New Negro Renaissance, Negritude, and Afrocriollo. To
study the key ideologies that emerged as collective black thought
within the Diaspora, particular attention is given to the
philosophies of Black Nationalism, Black Internationalism, and
Universal Humanism. Each leader and writer helped establish new
dimensions to evolving movements; thus, the text discerns the
temporal, spatial, and conceptual development of each literary and
sociopolitical movement. To probe the comparative and transnational
trajectories of the movements while concurrently examining the
geopolitical distinctions, the text focuses on leaders who
psychologically, culturally, and/or physically traveled throughout
Africa, the Americas, and Europe, and whose ideas were disseminated
and influenced a number of contemporaries and successors. Such
approach dismantles geographic, language, and generation barriers,
for a comprehensive analysis. Indeed, it was through the works
transmitted from one generation to the next that leaders learned
the lessons of history, particularly the lessons of organizational
strategies, which are indispensable to sustained and successful
liberation movements.
