While anthologized poems by African Americans have always been
indexed by Granger's(R), the great increase in interest by the
general public and the growing number of African American Studies
courses have led to the creation of a Granger's(R) index devoted
exclusively to poetry by African Americans.
To compile this "Index to African-American Poetry, " a team of
consultants sought to identify the best, most widely available
volumes of poetry by African Americans. The results of their
search: 33 anthologies and 32 volumes of collected and selected
works.
Like all Granger's(R) indexes, this newest index is easy to use.
The Title, First Line, and Last Line index is arranged
alphabetically. The Author Index is arranged alphabetically by poet
and, under each name, by poem title. In the Subject Index, authors
and their works are listed alphabetically under each subject
heading.
It is the fastest, most reliable way to answer such questions
as:
-What are the best anthologies of African-American poetry?
-What have African-American poets written about such highly
charged issues as religion? politics? patriotism? slavery? racism?
money? sex? What have they written about Harlem? the civil-rights
movement? Martin Luther King Jr.?
-What did Audre Lorde write about grief? How often?
-Who wrote the poem "Madam and the Rent Man," and where can it
be found?
