Engaging Tradition, Making It New offers a rich collection of fresh scholarly and pedagogical approaches to new African American literature. Organized around the theme of transgression, the collection focuses on those writers who challenge the reading habits and expectations of students and instructors, whether by engaging themes and literary forms not usually associated with African American literature or by departing from traditional modes of approaching historical, social, or legal struggles. Each chapter offers a specific reading of a particular novel, memoir, or poetry collection, sometimes in concert with a second, related text, and suggests both a useful critical context and one or more pedagogical approaches. Engaging Tradition, Making It New points the way toward exciting new methods of teaching and researching authors in this dynamic field.

Despite many education reform efforts, African American children remain the most miseducated students in the United States. To help you mend this critical problem, this collection of original, adapted, and previously published articles provides examples of research-based practices and programs that successfully teach African American students to read. Thoughtful commentary on historic and current issues, discussion of research-based best practices, and examples of culturally appropriate instruction help you examine the role of education, identify best practices, consider the significance of culture in the teaching-learning process, and investigate some difficult issues of assessment.

An interdisciplinary, code-switching, critical collection by revisionist African American scholar and activist Bernard W. Bell. Bearing Witness to African American Literature: Validating and Valorizing Its Authority, Authenticity, and Agency collects twenty-three of Bernard W. Bell’s lectures and essays that were first presented between 1968 and 2008. From his role in the culture wars as a graduate student activist in the Black Studies Movement to his work in the transcultural Globalization Movement as an international scholar and Fulbright cultural ambassador in Spain, Portugal, and China, Bell’s long and inspiring journey traces the modern institutional origins and the contemporary challengers of African American literary studies. This volume is made up of five sections, including chapters on W. E. B. DuBois’s theory and trope of double consciousness, an original theory of residually oral forms for reading the African American novel, an argument for an African Americentric vernacular and literary tradition, and a deconstruction of the myths of the American melting pot and literary mainstream. Bell considers texts by contemporary writers like Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, William Styron, James Baldwin, and Jean Toomer, as well as works by Mark Twain, Frederick Douglas, and William Faulkner. In a style that ranges from lyricism to the classic jeremiad, Bell emphasizes that his work bears the imprint of many major influences, including his mentor, poet and scholar Sterling A. Brown, and W. E. B. DuBois. Taken together, the chapters demonstrate Bell’s central place as a revisionist African American literary and cultural theorist, historian, and critic. Bearing Witness to African American Literature will be an invaluable introduction to major issues in the African American literary tradition for scholars of American, African American, and cultural studies.

Uno de los aspectos más valiosos de este libro es que comienza enlazando, a través de los dos primeros artículos, la educación universitaria con su nivel inmediatamente anterior: la escuela de secundaria; una conexión que a menudo se olvida con serios resultados para ambos. En este sentido, Benito Camacho Martín, el autor de uno de los artículos, realiza un análisis lúcido y en cierto modo dogmático sobre el declive de la enseñanza de literatura en las escuelas de secundaria, tanto en horas dedicadas como en conocimientos adquiridos. Los otros artículos –algunos en inglés y otros en castellano– tratan distintos aspectos de la enseñanza de literatura norteamericana, con un énfasis manifiesto en materiales del siglo XX y, sobre todo, en la literatura afro-americana; de hecho, el libro resultará particularmente útil para los profesores de esto último
