In recent decades, however, Wheatley's work has come under new scrutiny as the literature of the eighteenth century and the impact of African American literature have been reconceived. Fourteen prominent Wheatley scholars consider her work from a variety of angles, affirming her rise into the first rank of American writers. --from publisher description 600 10 $a Wheatley, Phillis, $d 1753-1784 $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a American literature $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 700 1 $a Shields, John C., $d 1944- 700 1 $a Lamore, Eric D. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171222054205.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160825094002.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EDDDEFD2EFE011E08369D5DE6AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
