WiSe 20/21: Classics of African American Literature: From Richard Wright to Toni Morrison

Birte Wege

Comments

In this seminar, we will closely analyze key texts by some of the most important American authors of the twentieth century, from the 1940s to the 1980s: Richard Wright’s Native Son, Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man, James Baldwin’s Another Country and various essays, Ishmael Reed’s Mumbo Jumbo, selected writings by Audre Lorde and Amiri Baraka, Alice Walker’s The Color Purple, and Toni Morrison’s Song of Solomon. We will discuss the complicated (and contentious) category of ‘African American Literature’ itself, and supplement our analysis with readings on Critical Race Theory, Intersectionality, Womanism, and other secondary material. close
