| Zusammenfassung: | Herman Beavers offers a richly nuanced study of Ernes J. Gaines, James Alan McPherson, and Ralph Ellison as writers who have found ways to invest circumstances that might otherwise be seen as sites of squalor or despair with a sense of cultural vitality. He examines the Ellisonian themes and motifs the two later writers take up in their fiction, and looks at Ellison's influence on the strategies they enact to construct themselves as American writers.For Beavers, the fictions of Ellison, Gaines, and McPherson are peopled by characters who value acts of storytelling and whose stories frame a fuller, more complex, and more inclusive version of American identity than those the dominant white culture has allowed |

University of Pennsylvania Press [2015] © 1995 1 online resource txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Penn Studies in Contemporary American Fiction Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher’s Web site, viewed Jan. 06, 2016) Herman Beavers offers a richly nuanced study of Ernes J. Gaines, James Alan McPherson, and Ralph Ellison as writers who have found ways to invest circumstances that might otherwise be seen as sites of squalor or despair with a sense of cultural vitality. He examines the Ellisonian themes and motifs the two later writers take up in their fiction, and looks at Ellison's influence on the strategies they enact to construct themselves as American writers.For Beavers, the fictions of Ellison, Gaines, and McPherson are peopled by characters who value acts of storytelling and whose stories frame a fuller, more complex, and more inclusive version of American identity than those the dominant white culture has allowed Ellison, Ralph 1913-1994 (DE-588)11853002X gnd rswk-swf Gaines, Ernest J. 1933-2019 (DE-588)118917064 gnd rswk-swf McPherson, James Alan 1943-2016 (DE-588)119149907 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1900-2000 Literary Studies Literature in Diverse Languages Other Nations and Languages African Americans in literature American fiction African American authors History and criticism American fiction 20th century History and criticism Roman (DE-588)4050479-7 gnd rswk-swf Kurzgeschichte (DE-588)4033842-3 gnd rswk-swf Schwarze (DE-588)4116433-7 gnd rswk-swf Prosa (DE-588)4047497-5 gnd rswk-swf Kulturelle Identität (DE-588)4033542-2 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Gaines, Ernest J. 1933-2019 (DE-588)118917064 p Roman (DE-588)4050479-7 s USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Kulturelle Identität (DE-588)4033542-2 s Schwarze (DE-588)4116433-7 s 1\p DE-604 Ellison, Ralph 1913-1994 (DE-588)11853002X p Prosa (DE-588)4047497-5 s 2\p DE-604 McPherson, James Alan 1943-2016 (DE-588)119149907 p Kurzgeschichte (DE-588)4033842-3 s 3\p DE-604 4\p DE-604 https://doi.org/10.9783/9781512800852 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
