Du Bois. The collection captures Wright's immense power, which has made him a beacon for writers across decades, from the civil rights era to today. Individual essays examine Wright's art as central to his intellectual life and shed new light on his classic texts-Native Son, Black Boy. Other essays turn to his short fiction, and nonfiction as well as lesser- known work in journalism and poetry, paying particular attention to manuscripts in Wright's archive - unpublished letters and novels, plans for multi-volume works-that allow us to see the depth and expansiveness of his aesthetic and political vision. Exploring how Wright's expatriation to France facilitated a broadening of this vision, contributors challenge the idea that expatriation led to Wright's artistic decline--$$cProvided by publisher. 000889941 60010 $$aWright, Richard,$$d1908-1960$$xCriticism and interpretation. 000889941 60010 $$aWright, Richard,$$d1908-1960$$xThemes, motives. 000889941 60010 $$aWright, Richard,$$d1908-1960$$xPolitical and social views. 000889941 650_0 $$aAfrican American authors$$xCriticism and interpretation. 000889941 7001_ $$aCarpio, Glenda,$$eeditor. 000889941 830_0 $$aCambridge companions to literature. 000889941 85200 $$bgen$$hPS3545.R815$$iZ6127$$i2019 000889941 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:889941$$pGLOBAL_SET 000889941 980__ $$aBIB 000889941 980__ $$aBOOK
