Various, regionally specific, eras and incarnations of freedom and slavery followed by reconstruction, the so-called nadir, great migrations, Harlem and Chicago Renaissances, expatriate life after both world wars, the Freedom Movement, Black Power, various kinds of feminisms, and the unprecedented level of commercial visibility of black culture have all etched themselves and erased each other, forcing artists to improvise new kinetic patterns into paint, song, and script. In constrast, in this collection Harlem means Harlem, so that the renaissances of other cities "are not studied in this volume," but there is a concentration on the concourse between Harlem and other sites. The history of Europe from Charlemagne forward is a history of renaissances propelled by recourse to original sources dutifully preserved and recopied. |
