Omschrijving
Explores how Native American, African American, Latinx, Asian American, and Irish American writers at the turn of the twentieth century relied on self-caricature, tricksterism, and the careful control of authorial personae to influence white audiences.
Writing across the Color Line makes a significant contribution to the fields of American literature (especially American literary realism, but also modernism), print culture, and multiethnic literature. The fact that Dietrich uses examples from different ethnic literary traditions is a real strength of this book."—Lori Harrison-Kahan, author of The White Negress: Literature, Minstrelsy, and the Black-Jewish Imaginary
"Dietrich adds to our understanding of some now-canonical authors in the field of multiethnic literature at the turn of the century, as well as our understanding of lesser-known authors, by bringing to bear extensive archival work."—Eric Aronoff, author of Composing Cultures: Modernism, American Literary Studies, and the Problem of Culture
Lucas A. Dietrich is adjunct professor of humanities at Lesley University.
