New York:: Oxford University Press, 1971. 0195014561. A Fine tight copy in a Near Fine, unclipped bright dust jacket with two shallow edge tears to the head of the spine. Harlem in the 1920s and 1930s was considered the "capital of the black world," where poets, novelists, muscians, playwrites, and journalists congregated to produce a sophisticated artistic movement that reflected the lives and concerns of the emerging black intelligensia. This was the first full assessment of this movement that launched the careers of Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, James Weldon Johnson, W.E. B. DuBois, Zora Neale Hurston and Wallace Thurman..

A finalist for the 1972 National Book Award, hailed by The New York Times Book Review as "brilliant" and "provocative," Nathan Huggins' Harlem Renaissance is a milestone in the study of African-American life and culture. A superb portrait of one of the signal episodes in African-American and American history, this volume offers a brilliant account of the creative explosion in Harlem during these pivotal years. Blending the fields of history, literature, music, psychology, and folklore, Huggins illuminates the thought and writing of such key figures as Alain Locke, James Weldon Johnson, and W.E.B. DuBois and provides sharp-eyed analyses of the poetry of Claude McKay, Countee Cullen, and Langston Hughes. But the main objective for Huggins, throughout the book, is always to achieve a better understanding of America as a whole. As Huggins himself noted, he didn't want Harlem in the 1920s to be the focus of the book so much as a lens through which readers might see how this one moment in time sheds light on the American character and culture, not just in Harlem but across the nation. He strives throughout to link the work of poets and novelists not only to artists working in other genres and media but also to economic, historical, and cultural forces in the culture at large.
