CONDITION: Very good front cover lightly scratched in two places minimal wear. First edition of this "one-thousand-eighty-two-page anthology that not only defined the field of African American literature as a legitimate academic discipline for the first time but by soberly assessing black authors 'without sentimental allowances' on an equal rather than separate basis 'served notice that the Negro author has come of age" Weinstein. Collects African American writers working across short stories novels poetry folk literature drama speeches biography and essays including works by Frederick Douglass Langston Hughes Chester Himes Charles W. Chesnutt Zora Neale Hurston Phillis Wheatley W. E. B. Du Bois Booker T. Washington Katherine Dunham and many others. The breadth of selection not only represents the range of Black writing but allows readers to "appreciate the evolution of black writing in style subject matter and theme in each genre not to mention having the sheer pleasure of reading works of which one had only heard or had never known existed" Lester.
