Best known as the trailblazing, bestselling author of Native Son and Black Boy, he established himself as an experimental literary intellectual in France who creatively drew on some of the leading ideas of his time - Marxism, existentialism, psychoanalysis, and postcolonialism - to explore the sources and meaning of racism both in the United States and worldwide. Richard Wright in Context gathers thirty-three new essays by leading scholars relating Wright's writings to biographical, regional, social, literary, and intellectual contexts essential to understanding them. It explores the places that shaped his life and enabled his literary destiny, the social and cultural contexts he both observed and immersed himself in, and the literary and intellectual contexts that made him one the most famous Black writers in the world at mid-century" --Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Richard Wright's triangulated South : formation as prelude and preface / Thadious Davis -- Richard Wright's Chicago / Liesl Olson -- New York and Brooklyn / Ayesha Hardison -- Paris and Ailly / William E.
