In The New Negro : The Life of Alain Locke, Jeffrey C. Stewart offers the definitive biography of the father of the Harlem Renaissance, based on the extant primary sources of his life and on interviews with those who knew him personally. He narrates the education of Locke, including his becoming the first African American Rhodes Scholar and earning a PhD in philosophy at Harvard University, and his long career as a professor at Howard University. Locke also received a cosmopolitan, aesthetic education through his travels in continental Europe, where he came to appreciate the beauty of art and experienced a freedom unknown to him in the United States. And yet he became most closely associated with the flowering of Black culture in Jazz Age America and his promotion of the literary and artistic work of African Americans as the quintessential creations of American modernism. In the process he looked to Africa to find the proud and beautiful roots of the race. Shifting the discussion of race from politics and economics to the arts, he helped establish the idea that Black urban communities could be crucibles of creativity. Stewart explores both Locke's professional and private life, including his relationships with his mother, his friends, and his white patrons, as well as his lifelong search for love as a gay man. Stewart's thought-provoking biography recreates the worlds of this illustrious, enigmatic man who, in promoting the cultural heritage of Black people, became--in the process--a New Negro himself"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000851345 586__ $$aNational Book Award, 2018. 000851345 586__ $$aPulitzer Prize, 2019. 000851345 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000851345 60010 $$aLocke, Alain,$$d1885-1954. 000851345 60010 $$aLocke, Alain,$$d1885-1954$$xPolitical and social views. 000851345 650_0 $$aAfrican American philosophers$$vBiography. 000851345 650_0 $$aAfrican American intellectuals$$vBiography. 000851345 650_0 $$aAfrican American college teachers$$vBiography. 000851345 650_0 $$aHarlem Renaissance. 000851345 650_0 $$aAfrican American arts$$xHistory. 000851345 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$xIntellectual life. 000851345 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aStewart, Jeffrey C., 1950-$$tNew Negro.$$dNew York, NY : Oxford University Press, [2018]$$z9780195089578$$w(DLC) 2017026626$$w(OCoLC)982092783 000851345 852__ $$bcoll 000851345 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000851345 85640 $$3eBooks on EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1661950$$zOnline Access 000851345 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:851345$$pGLOBAL_SET 000851345 980__ $$aEBOOK 000851345 980__ $$aBIB 000851345 982__ $$aEbook 000851345 983__ $$aOnline 000851345 994__ $$a92$$bISE
