By paying close attention to the personal as well as cultural forms of expression, we will observe how the anguish, joy, and even the mundane aspects of the early African-American experience translate into a distinct canon of literature. Representative authors include Phillis Wheatley, Frederick Douglass, Harriet Jacobs, Frances E.W. Harper, Pauline Hopkins, and W.E.B. Dubois.
