The Crisis of Negritude: A Study of the Black Movement Against Intellectual Oppression in the Early 20th Century
ISBN: 9781599424729 / Angielski / Miękka / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Negritude movement was initiated in the 1930s by the sisters Jane and Paulette Nardal, who created a journal called The Review of the African World-- a journal that recognized the value of black experiences globally. The name of the movement was grafted from a poem by Aimie Cesaire, "The Return to the Native Land." Negritude flourished between 1930 and 1960, until its eventual collapse due to problems with definitions, ideological floundering, and the burden of foreign language that was inflicted by the writings of Jean Paul Sartre.

In Defiance of God
ISBN: 9781432732790 / Angielski / Miękka / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. I realized many years ago that unless America made drastic changes in its relationship with God the country would be headed for a powerful fall from grace. Too long have Americans defied the commandments of our Creator; we have been living on a razor's edge, and in all reality, I feel that the end of America's greatness is immediately before us if the drastic changes are not made.
Since God is the same yesterday, today, and forever, it makes clear sense to me that America would suffer the same fate as did the other nations before us that defied God; therefore, it is my sincere hope that...

The American Slave Narrative and the Victorian Novel
ISBN: 9780195390322 / Angielski / Twarda / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Conceived as a literary form to aggressively publicize the abolitionist cause in the United States, the African American slave narrative remains a powerful and illuminating demonstration of America's dark history. Yet the genre's impact extended far beyond the borders of the U.S. In a period when few books sold more than five hundred copies, slave narratives sold in the tens of thousands, providing British readers vivid accounts of the violence and privation experienced by American slaves. Eloquent, bracing narratives by Frederick Douglass, William Box Brown, Solomon Northrop, and others...
