rom
America s revolutionary period to the Civil War and Reconstruction, African Americans con¬
tributed important works to the country s blossoming literary canon. Written in a variety of genres, from
neoclassical poetry to sentimental fiction, their work represented a desire to bridge the racial divide and to
write themselves into acceptance. Striving for an integrated audience, they recounted experiences and
voiced opinions from a unique, African American perspective.
Rafia Zafar
uncovers the strategies these early writers used both to create an African American identi¬
ty and to make their visions and stories accessible to white readers. Alongside these pioneers of black
American literature
Zafar
juxtaposes some familiar European American writers. Beginning with Phillis
Wheatley s implicit engagements with other colonial-era poets and ending with the ultimately tragic suc¬
cess story of Elizabeth Keckley, ex-slave, seamstress, and confidante to a First Lady, black authors employee!
virtually every dominant literary genre while cannily manipulating the nature of their presence.
Zafar
demonstrates that in doing so, these forerunners of modern black American writers both adapted to and
reacted against a milieu of social resistance and cultural antipathy. By the end of Reconstruction, this first
century of black writers had paved the way for a distinctive, African American literature.
By examining early African American literature as both an essential parr of and a counterpoint to the
American literary mainstream, this illuminating history provides a fresh approach to reading and teaching
American literature.
