Book Description
An anthology of the scholarship on the African American writer. A prolific nineteenth-century author, Paul Laurence Dunbar was the first African American poet to gain national recognition. It examines the self-motivated and dynamic effect of his use of dialect, language, rhetorical strategies, and narrative theory to promote racial uplift.
