Was Huck Black?: Mark Twain and African-American Voices
Fishkin, Shelley Fisher (Professor of American Studies, Professor of American Studies, University of Texas, Austin)
An examination of Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn suggesting that more than any other work, Twain let African-American voices, languages, and rhetorical traditions play a major role in the creation of his art. Adds new dimension to current debates over multiculturalism, and the literary canon, showing how it has helped shape African-American writing in the twentieth century.
