This volume reframes mid-century African American literature and challenges our current understandings of both African American and American literature. It presents a fluid tradition that includes history, science, politics, economics, space and movement, the visual, and the sonic. Black writing was highly conscious of transnational and international politics, textual circulation, and revolutionary imaginaries. Chapters explore how Black literature was being produced and circulated; how and why it marked its relation to other literary and expressive traditions; what geopolitical imaginaries it facilitated through representation; and what technologies, including print, enabled African Americans to pursue such a complex and ongoing aesthetic and political project.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Teresa Zackodnik\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108427480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108427487\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/13\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 414\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 7.80w x 1.00d","brand":"Teresa Zackodnik","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43989162000639,"sku":"9781108427487","price":121.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6880511c-4c49-4e63-aab8-cb5809636b69.jpg?v=1683297925","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/african-american-literature-in-transition-teresa-zackodnik-9781108427487","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
