Description

Product Description The twenty-first century is witnessing a dynamic broadening of how blackness signifies both in the U.S. and abroad. Literary writers of the new African diaspora are at the forefront of exploring these exciting approaches to what black subjectivity means. Pan-African American Literature is dedicated to charting the contours of literature by African born or identified authors centered around life in the United States. The texts examined here deliberately signify on the African American literary canon to encompass new experiences of immigration, assimilation and identification that challenge how blackness has been previously conceived. Though race often alienates and frustrates immigrants who are accustomed to living in all-black environments, Stephanie Li holds that it can also be a powerful form of community and political mobilization. Review "Recent Books of Interest to African American Scholars" roundup-- "Journal of Blacks in Higher Education""[An] important book."-- "American Studies in Scandinavia""Essential."-- "Choice""Timely and promising, Pan-African American Literature will make a major and distinctive contribution to African American studies, cultural studies, and American literary studies."--Michele Elam "author of The Souls of Mixed Folk: Race, Politics, and Aesthetics in the New Millennium" About the Author Stephanie Li is the Susan D. Gubar Chair in Literature at Indiana University, Bloomington. She is the author of four books, including Signifying without Specifying: Racial Discourse in the Age of Obama (Rutgers University Press).
