Dale E Peterson

Up from Bondage

The Literatures of Russian and African American Soul

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"A remarkable, almost epic book. Up from slavery and up from Slavdom: Dale Peterson focuses on comparable moments in the coming-to-consciousness of two 'dark continents, ' the African and the Russian, where the stubborn fact of bondage for the many, a rich and conflicted dual identity for the educated few, and routine exclusion from the European mainstream as 'non-historical peoples' motivated a sophisticated intellectual odyssey that astonishes us afresh each time we rediscover it. "Up From Bondage" is an inspiration."--Caryl Emerson, Princeton University
