IN The Loop: Alice Walker's Archive Goes To Emory
alice walker, Pulitzer Prizewinner and internationally known Georgia-born novelist and poet, will place her archive with Emory University, Provost Earl
http://atlantaintown.blogspot.com/2008/01/alice-walkers-archive-goes-to-emory.ht

Extractions: "The acquisition of the Alice Walker Archive is a major addition to Emory's collection," said Lewis. "Scholars and students from around the world will find in these papers Alice Walker: her commitment to social activism, literary genesis, personal growth and development, spirituality and self. We are delighted that she has entrusted us to share this aspect of her with the world." Walker has written most frequently about the struggle for survival among Southern blacks, particularly black women. She also has given literary voice to the struggle for human rights, environmental issues, social movements and spirituality, as well as the quest for inner and world peace. Often considered controversial for her portrayals of racial, gender and sexual issues, Walker is widely recognized for her thoughtful weaving of realism with love for humanity and human potential. "I chose Emory to receive my archive because I myself feel at ease and comfortable at Emory," said Walker. "I can imagine in years to come that my papers, my journals and letters will find themselves always in the company of people who care about many of the things I do: culture, community, spirituality, scholarship and the blessings of ancestors who want each of us to find joy and happiness in this life by doing the very best we can to be worthy of it."

African-American Women's Lit Stripping Bark-Alice Walker's Poetry in confronting the taboo Articles in this Topic Discussions in this Topic Sep 3, 1999 Alice Walker (b. 1944) has published several collections of essays, poetry, and several novels. Her work has universal appeal while at the same time speaks to issues of concern for women and for women of color. Walker's work especially speaks to the day to day realities of women, as we confront issues that are significant and large in our lives. One of the things that I most appreciate in Walker's work is her ability, as a writer, to reach out to all women by writing about those things that are personal, painful, and sometimes taboo for her characters, whether they are fictional or real. Walker certainly helps the readers to understand the phrase that came out of the women's studies movements in the 1970's and 80's "the personal is political" by taking issues that are personal and makes them significant enough to be place in the center of political arenas. Walker also makes it clear that the problems that her characters face in her fiction, and that the women about whom she writes in her non-fiction (including herself) are not unique in their experiences. She speaks loudly, but gently, to those whose experiences are similar to the women about whom she writes. For example, in a poem entitled: "Did This Happen to Your Mother? Did Your Sister Throw Up a Lot?" Walker discusses the pains of loving a man who is "not worth my love." She follows the line with "Did this happen to your mother? Did your grandmother wake up for no good reason in the middle of the night?" and later in the poem she writes, "Did you sister throw up a lot? Did your cousin complain of a painful knot in her back? Did your aunt always seem to have something else troubling her mind?"

Extractions: var level = 2; FRtR Outlines American Literature American Prose Since 1945: Realism and Experimentation ... Authors Alice Walker (1944- ) Index Alice Walker, an African-American and the child of a sharecropper family in rural Georgia, graduated from Sarah Lawrence College, where one of her teachers was the politically committed female poet Muriel Rukeyser. Other influences on her work have been Flannery O'Connor and Zora Neale Hurston. A "womanist" writer, as Walker calls herself, she has long been associated with feminism, presenting black existence from the female perspective. Like Toni Morrison , Jamaica Kincaid, Toni Cade Bambara, and other accomplished contemporary black novelists, Walker uses heightened, lyrical realism to center on the dreams and failures of accessible, credible people. Her work underscores the quest for dignity in human life. A fine stylist, particularly in her epistolary dialect novel The Color Purple , her work seeks to educate. In this she resembles the black American novelist Ishmael Reed, whose satires expose social problems and racial issues.

Cutter The ancient story of Philomela has resonated in the imaginations of women writers for several thousand years. The presence of this myth in contemporary texts by African American women writers marks the persistence of a powerful archetypal narrative explicitly connecting rape (a violent inscription of the female body), silencing, and the complete erasure of feminine subjectivity.(1) For in most versions of this myth Philomela is not only rapedshe is also silenced. In Ovid's recounting, for example, Philomela is raped by her brother-in-law, Tereus, who then tears out her tongue. Philomela is finally transformed into a nightingale, doomed to chirp out the name of her rapist for eternity: tereu, tereu. The mythic narrative of Philomela therefore explicitly intertwines rape, silencing, and the destruction of feminine subjectivity.
