Mullen -- Effective/defective James Baldwin / Robert F. Reid-Pharr. 520 $a "Of Latitudes Unknown is a multi-faceted study of James Baldwin's radical imagination. It is a selective and thoughtful survey that re-investigates the grounds of Baldwin studies and provides new critical approaches, subjects, and orientations for Baldwin criticism. This volume joins recent critical collections in "un-fragmenting" Baldwin and establishing further conjunctions in his work: the essay and the novel; the polemical and the aesthetic; his use of and participation in visual forms; and his American as well as international identities. But it goes beyond other recent studies by focusing on new entities of Baldwin's radical imagination: his English and French language selves; his late encounters with Africa; his appearances on French television and interviews with French journalists; and his unrecognized literary journalism. Of Latitudes Unknown also addresses Baldwin's relations with the Arab world, his anticipation of contemporary film and media studies, and his paradoxical public intellectualism. As it reassesses Baldwin's contributions to and influences on world literary history, Of Latitudes Unknown equally explores why the critical appreciation of Baldwin's writing continues to flourish, and why it remains a vast territory whose parts lie open to much deeper exploration and elaboration." -- Publisher's description 600 10 $a Baldwin, James, $d 1924-1987 $x Political and social views. 600 10 $a Baldwin, James, $d 1924-1987 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Baldwin, James, $d 1924-1987. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00038941 600 17 $a Baldwin, James, $d 1924-1987 $x Political and social views. $2 nli 600 17 $a Baldwin, James, $d 1924-1987 $x Criticism and interpretation. $2 nli 650 7 $a 18.06 Anglo-American literature. $0 (NL-LeOCL)077611985 $2 bcl 650 7 $a Political and social views. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01353986 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 700 1 $a Craven, Alice Mikal, $e editor. 700 1 $a Dow, William $q (William E.), $e editor. 700 1 $a Nakamura, Yoko, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Of latitudes unknown $d New York, NY : Bloomsbury Academic, 2019 $z 9781501337727 $w (DLC) 2019002702 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718093236.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DD6042B8214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
