Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references "Dudley Randall was one of the foremost voices in African American literature during the twentieth century, best known for his poetry and his work as the editor and publisher of Broadside Press in Detroit. While he published six books of poetry during his life, much of his work has been out of print or fragmented among numerous anthologies. Roses and revolutions: the selected writings of Dudley Randall brings together his most popular poems with his lesser-known short stories, first published in The Negro digest during the 1960s, and several of his essays, which profoundly influenced the direction and attitude of the Black Arts movement. "Roses and revolutions: the selected writings of Dudley Randall" is arranged in seven sections: "Images from Black Bottom," "Wars: at home and abroad," "The Civil Rights era," "Poems on miscellaneous subjects," "Love poems," "Dialectics of the Black aesthetic," and "The last leap of the muse." Poems and prose are mixed throughout the volume and are arranged roughly chronologically. Taken as a whole, Randall's writings showcase his skill as a wordsmith and his affinity for themes of love, human contradictions, and political action. His essays further contextualize his work by revealing his views on race and writing, aesthetic form, and literary and political history. Editor Melba Joyce Boyd introduces this collection with an overview of Randall's life and career. The collected writings in Roses and revolutions not only confirm the talent and the creative intellect of Randall as an author and editor but also demonstrate why his voice remains relevant and impressive in the twenty-first century. Randall was named the first Poet Laureate of the City of Detroit and received numerous awards for his literary work, including the Life Achievement Award from the National Endowment of the Arts in 1986. Students and teachers of African American literature as well as readers of poetry will appreciate this landmark volume." --From the Publisher Introduction / Melba Joyce Boyd -- Roses and revolutions -- Images From Black Bottom -- Essays -- Black aesthetic in the thirties, forties, and fifties -- Poems -- Old Witherington -- For Pharish Pinckney, bindle-stiff during the Depression -- Vacant lot -- Ghetto girls -- Laughter in the slums -- George -- Short stories -- Cup for the loser -- Victoria -- Wars: At Home And Abroad -- Poems -- Memorial wreath -- Southern road -- Legacy: my South -- Games -- Rx -- Jailhouse blues -- Apparition -- Spring before a war -- Helmeted boy -- Football season -- Pacific epitaphs -- Ascent -- Coral atoll -- Wait for me (Zhdi Myenya) -- My native land (Rodina) -- Civil Rights Era -- Essays -- Toward Mount Olympus: Ubi Sunt and Hic Sum -- White poet, black critic -- Short stories -- Cut throat -- Shoe shine boy -- Incident on a bus -- Poems -- Booker T and W E B -- Ballad of Birmingham -- Dressed all in pink -- Hymn -- Frederick Douglass and the slave breaker -- Interview -- Dilemma -- - Poet -- Aphorisms -- Intellectuals -- Straight talk from a patriot -- Daily news report -- Blood precious blood -- Leader of the people -- Essay -- Melvin B Tolson: Portrait of a poet as raconteur -- Poems On Miscellaneous Subjects -- Hail, Dionysos -- Analysands -- Winter campus: Ann Arbor -- Shape of the invisible -- Nocturne -- Augury for an infant -- Belle Isle -- Verse forms -- Poem, on a nude, from the ballet, to Debussy's prelude L'Apres-Midi D'un Faune, after Mallarme's L'apres-Midi D'un Faune -- Killing a bug -- Love Poems -- I loved you once (ya vas lyubil) -- Profile on the pillow -- Good to be in you -- Thunderstorm -- Black magic -- Brightness moved us softly -- Love poem -- Sanctuary -- Love song -- April mood -- Loss -- Green apples -- Anniversary words -- Dialectics Of The Black Aesthetic -- Essays -- Black power -- Black publisher, Black writer: an answer -- Poems -- Black poet, white critic -- Rite -- Primitives -- Melting pot -- Justice -- Langston blues -- - Seeds of revolution -- Answer to Lerone Bennett's questionnaire on a name for black Americans -- Put your muzzle where your mouth is (or shut up) -- Idiot -- Informer -- FBI memo -- Abu -- Militant black poet -- Sniper -- Tell it like it is -- Beasts -- After the killing -- To the mercy killers -- Ancestors -- Different image -- In Africa -- African suite: 1: Slave castle -- 2: Hotel Continental -- 3: Hotel Ivoire -- 4: Village girl -- Essay -- Black emotion and experience: the literature for understanding -- Last Leap Of The Muse -- Poet is not a jukebox -- My muse -- Translation from Chopin -- Detroit Renaissance -- Bag woman -- Aging whore -- Poor dumb Butch -- To an old man -- Afterword: Happiness -- Appendix 1: Poetry books by Dudley Randall, with contents -- Appendix 2: Capsule course in black poetry writing -- Selected bibliography |

"Roses and revolutions: the selected writings of Dudley Randall" is arranged in seven sections: "Images from Black Bottom," "Wars: at home and abroad," "The Civil Rights era," "Poems on miscellaneous subjects," "Love poems," "Dialectics of the Black aesthetic," and "The last leap of the muse." Poems and prose are mixed throughout the volume and are arranged roughly chronologically. Taken as a whole, Randall's writings showcase his skill as a wordsmith and his affinity for themes of love, human contradictions, and political action. His essays further contextualize his work by revealing his views on race and writing, aesthetic form, and literary and political history. Editor Melba Joyce Boyd introduces this collection with an overview of Randall's life and career. The collected writings in Roses and revolutions not only confirm the talent and the creative intellect of Randall as an author and editor but also demonstrate why his voice remains relevant and impressive in the twenty-first century. Randall was named the first Poet Laureate of the City of Detroit and received numerous awards for his literary work, including the Life Achievement Award from the National Endowment of the Arts in 1986. Students and teachers of African American literature as well as readers of poetry will appreciate this landmark volume." --From the Publisher Introduction / Melba Joyce Boyd -- Roses and revolutions -- Images From Black Bottom -- Essays -- Black aesthetic in the thirties, forties, and fifties -- Poems -- Old Witherington -- For Pharish Pinckney, bindle-stiff during the Depression -- Vacant lot -- Ghetto girls -- Laughter in the slums -- George -- Short stories -- Cup for the loser -- Victoria -- Wars: At Home And Abroad -- Poems -- Memorial wreath -- Southern road -- Legacy: my South -- Games -- Rx -- Jailhouse blues -- Apparition -- Spring before a war -- Helmeted boy -- Football season -- Pacific epitaphs -- Ascent -- Coral atoll -- Wait for me (Zhdi Myenya) -- My native land (Rodina) -- Civil Rights Era -- Essays -- Toward Mount Olympus: Ubi Sunt and Hic Sum -- White poet, black critic -- Short stories -- Cut throat -- Shoe shine boy -- Incident on a bus -- Poems -- Booker T and W E B -- Ballad of Birmingham -- Dressed all in pink -- Hymn -- Frederick Douglass and the slave breaker -- Interview -- Dilemma -- - Poet -- Aphorisms -- Intellectuals -- Straight talk from a patriot -- Daily news report -- Blood precious blood -- Leader of the people -- Essay -- Melvin B Tolson: Portrait of a poet as raconteur -- Poems On Miscellaneous Subjects -- Hail, Dionysos -- Analysands -- Winter campus: Ann Arbor -- Shape of the invisible -- Nocturne -- Augury for an infant -- Belle Isle -- Verse forms -- Poem, on a nude, from the ballet, to Debussy's prelude L'Apres-Midi D'un Faune, after Mallarme's L'apres-Midi D'un Faune -- Killing a bug -- Love Poems -- I loved you once (ya vas lyubil) -- Profile on the pillow -- Good to be in you -- Thunderstorm -- Black magic -- Brightness moved us softly -- Love poem -- Sanctuary -- Love song -- April mood -- Loss -- Green apples -- Anniversary words -- Dialectics Of The Black Aesthetic -- Essays -- Black power -- Black publisher, Black writer: an answer -- Poems -- Black poet, white critic -- Rite -- Primitives -- Melting pot -- Justice -- Langston blues -- - Seeds of revolution -- Answer to Lerone Bennett's questionnaire on a name for black Americans -- Put your muzzle where your mouth is (or shut up) -- Idiot -- Informer -- FBI memo -- Abu -- Militant black poet -- Sniper -- Tell it like it is -- Beasts -- After the killing -- To the mercy killers -- Ancestors -- Different image -- In Africa -- African suite: 1: Slave castle -- 2: Hotel Continental -- 3: Hotel Ivoire -- 4: Village girl -- Essay -- Black emotion and experience: the literature for understanding -- Last Leap Of The Muse -- Poet is not a jukebox -- My muse -- Translation from Chopin -- Detroit Renaissance -- Bag woman -- Aging whore -- Poor dumb Butch -- To an old man -- Afterword: Happiness -- Appendix 1: Poetry books by Dudley Randall, with contents -- Appendix 2: Capsule course in black poetry writing -- Selected bibliography Randall, Dudley 1914-2000 (DE-588)120881012 gnd rswk-swf 1900 - 1999 fast Geschichte 1900-2000 FICTION / General bisacsh American literature / African American authors fast American literature African American authors 20th century Randall, Dudley 1914-2000 (DE-588)120881012 p 1\p DE-604 Boyd, Melba Joyce Sonstige oth http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=390261 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
