"I believed that next to knowing a people personally, one can know them most through art and especially literary art, where the complexity of human beings is explored at the fullest possible range."
Edward Clark
Professor Emeritus of English, Suffolk University

INTRODUCTION
The Collection of African American Literature is a collaborative effort between Suffolk University , the Museum of Afro- American History , and the National Park Service's Boston African American National Historic Site . It was founded in 1971 by Dr. Edward Clark, professor emeritus of English at Suffolk University. In the late 1960s, in the aftermath of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Professsor Clark began gathering books to support Suffolk University courses which he hoped would grow into a collection that would help to promote multi-cultural harmony. Though dedicated to African American literature as a whole, the collection focuses primarily on the Black experience in New England. By 1995, the collection had grown to over 4,900 volumes, including the works of some 1,200 African American authors. The Collection's strengths are in twentieth century fiction, poetry, literary criticism and studies with a limited amount of non-fiction in history and the social sciences. It contains no genealogical information.

N. Scott Momaday
Courtesy, University New Mexico Press Navarre Scott Momaday (1934- ), a Native American of Kiowa and Cherokee descent, was raised in the American Southwest on various Native American reservations. His mother and father both worked as teachers in Native American schools, but they also pursued artistic interests: Momaday's mother was a writer, his father a painter.
Like his parents, Momaday has been both a teacher and writer. Since earning a bachelor's degree at the University of New Mexico, and an M.A. and a Ph.D. at Stanford, Momaday has held tenured appointments at the University of California, Berkeley; UC Santa Barbara; Stanford; and the University of Arizona. He has been honored for his poetry and prose with numerous awards: His debut novel, House Made of Dawn , was the first by a Native American author to be awarded the Pulitzer Prize. He has been the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, a National Institute of Arts and Letters Award, and the Premio Letterario Internationale Mondello, Italy's highest literary honor.

Title of work: Coyote Stories by Mourning Dove
Synopsis
Audio Clip Information about key references Suggestions for applying other theories ... Coyote Stories
Synopsis
Mourning Dove has written, "No foreigner could possibly penetrate or research [the legends, customs, and theories of my people] because of the effort needed to overcome the shy reluctance of the Indian when it comes to giving information to whites." Her Coyote Stories set these legends down for a wider world to read.
To understand these Salish legends, one must understand the figure of Coyote. Coyote is a classic trickster figure found in the folklore of many Native American tribes, although various tribal traditions have resulted in slight nuances in Coyote's qualities and character. Mourning Dove's Coyote is a cultural hero with a multiple nature: divine, human, and animal. His divine helper, also known as his twin or "dual face," is Fox. Storytellers use the Coyote tales to provide practical instruction, information about nature and history, and entertainment.
In Mourning Dove's Coyote Stories , we learn why the spider has long legs, why the badger is humble, and why the mosquito bites. The tales are interesting and psychologically compelling. In her introduction to the tales, Mourning Dove remarks on how she and the other children would listen to the elders tell these tales, unaware of their deeper lessons. Coyote, both foolishly human and powerfully divine, gives humorous voice to impulses that a tribe would need to suppress in order to maintain order.

Although this is the main focus of this guide, some resources on Spanish American literature have also been included.

    Twentieth-century authors: Biographic and bibliographic information is just a click away

    Vol. 60, No. 11
    by Michelle Mach and Cynthia D. Shirkey This column contains selected Web sites that cover English-language authors who are currently prominent or who flourished sometime in the 20th century.1 It will focus primarily on biographical and bibliographic information, with some information on literary criticism. While some primary texts from the early 20th century are available online, they were considered outside the scope of this column.
    Most of the sites included are housed at academic institutions and are maintained by individual professors. In addition to these sources, Web sites of large booksellers often contain valuable information about contemporary authors, especially in the form of brief biographies, interviews, and book reviews. Newspapers and book publishers also sometimes preview opening chapters of recently published works. Starting points: meta sites and directories

Like N. Scott Momaday's poetic The Way to Rainy Mountain (1969), it is a "chant novel" structured on Native American healing rituals. Silko's novel The Almanac of the Dead (1991) offers a panorama of the Southwest, from ancient tribal migrations to present-day drug runners and corrupt real estate developers reaping profits by misusing the land."
