printer friendly pageENGLISH 187: Zora Neale Hurston (AFRICAAM 189, AMSTUD 187)
An exploration of the life, times, and works of Zora Neale Hurston, who died in obscurity in 1960 despite having published more books than any other African American woman. We will encounter the diversity of Hurston's interests across a range of media - her training as an anthropologist, her work in the folk cultures of the American South and the urban environment of the North, her diasporic interest in Black expression in the US, the Caribbean, and Africa. We will read Hurston's plays, short stories, folklore, essays, anthropology, and novels, and consider her interest in - and contributions to - photography, film, and music."
