    Teaching, attendance, assessment, feedback Primary and preliminary secondary texts Course Description (week-by-week) Full Secondary Reading List ... Last Year’s Exam Questions (sample paper) This course provides a survey of African-American literature in relation to the troubled history of race in America. It begins with the first writings of black Americans in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries – mainly slave narratives – and charts the emergence of more literary forms of writing, culminating in the explosion of activity in Harlem in the 1920s, an important moment in Modernism. In the period which follows we examine the political novel in the wake of Richard Wright’s Native Son ; modernist and postmodernist writings; writings on black history and historiography; and the prominence of recent black women writers. The course aims to provide students with an understanding of the context of African-American culture, including oral culture, the blues, and folklore, and the debates which surround these forms; it addresses notions of race, dislocation (the Middle Passage), religion, and other topics in African-American history; as well as gender, class and other issues. It also considers the signifying practices and commonplaces of the tradition: call-and-response, ‘signifying,’ the divided self, ‘passing’, etc.
    Teaching and Attendance
    The course is taught by a weekly two-hour seminar, with eight hours a week private study and preparation expected.
