"This volume reveals a comprehensive view of the Art or Propaganda debate. Among others, this text addresses the works of Langston Hughes, W.E.B Dubois, Alain Locke, Lorraine Hansberry, Amiri Baraka, Adrienne Kennedy, Sydney Poitier, and August Wilson. Of particular note black theory collides or intersects with canonical theorists, including Aristotle, Keats, Ibsen, Nietzsche, Shaw, and O'Neill"--Provided by publisher.
