The beginning of the 20th century marked a new phase of the battle for civil rights in America. But many of the era’s most important African-American writers were also acutely aware of the importance of environmental justice to the struggle. Civil Rights and the Environment in African-American Literature is the first book to explore the centrality of environmental problems to writing from the civil rights movement in the early decades of the century. Bringing ecocritical perspectives to bear on the work of such important writers as Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. Du Bois, the writers of the Harlem Renaissance and Depression-era African-American writing, the book brings to light a vital new perspective on ecocriticism and modern American literary history. 2022-10-14T14:53:58Z 2022-10-14T14:53:58Z 2017 book ONIX_20221014_9781350009448_129 9781350009448 9781350009431 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/58798 eng Environmental Cultures application/pdf n/a 9781350009448.pdf Bloomsbury Academic Bloomsbury Academic 10.5040/9781350009455 10.5040/9781350009455 066d8288-86e4-4745-ad2c-4fa54a6b9b7b 9781350009448 9781350009431 Bloomsbury Academic 216 London open access |
