内容説明
In the decades of the 1920s and 1930s in the section of New York City known as Harlem there developed a unique awakening of mind and spirit, of race consciousness and artistic advancement. This declaration of African-American independence became known as the Harlem Renaissance. It was an artistic and socio-cultural stirring that occurred in the African-American community as a result of the Great Migration when large numbers of blacks living in the rural South made their way to the urban centers of the North and Midwest. During this time in Harlem there was an emergence of new ideas in political thought; numerous groundbreaking artistic developments in theater, music, literature, and visual arts; and an inauguration of civil rights organizations, unions, and other associations. Encyclopedia of the Harlem Renaissance is a fascinating guide to this colorful and culturally productive era in African-American history.
Including a foreword; a general introduction; A-to-Z entries; a chronology; a bibliography and list of sources for further reading, listening, and viewing; subject indexes; and a general index, this encyclopedia contains an abundance of information presented in an accessible format that everyone can enjoy.
