Race, Historical Trauma, and Subjectivity in Faulkner, Larsen, and Van Vechten
Description
Highlights references to nineteenth-century US slavery and anti-Black racism in literary and photographic projects begun during the late 1920s and early 1930s, including novels by William Faulkner and Nella Larsen. In this book, each text explores the conservative, even coercive social character of such links between psyche and history.
