Black Land

The first book to explore how African-American writing and art engaged with visions of Ethiopia during the late 19th and early 20th centuries illuminates the increasing tensions and ironies behind cultural celebrations of an African country asserting itself as an imperial power.

Prima carte care exploreaza modul in care scrierea si arta afro-americana s-au implicat in viziunile Etiopiei la sfarsitul secolului al XIX-lea si inceputul secolului al XX-lea lumineaza tensiunile si ironiile in crestere din spatele sarbatorilor culturale ale unei tari africane care se afirma ca o putere imperiala.
