	The Origins of African American Literature by Dickson D. Bruce, Jr.
		From the earliest texts of the colonial period to works contemporary with Emancipation, African American literature has been a dialogue across color lines, and a medium through which fl writers have been able to exert considerable authority on both sides of that racial demarcation.
		The Origins of African American Literature is an invaluable revelation of the emergence and sources of the specifically African American literary tradition and the forces that helped shape it.
		In this regard Bruce reveals a tremendous amount of original research, a thoroughly probing revaluation of long-held ideas about early African American literary output, and a fascinating theoretical barometer by which to gauge early works and their implications for subsequent writing.

	glbtq >> literature >> Erotica and Pornography
		Indeed ephebophilia is so much an accepted part of classical Islamic civilization that it came to represent the norm of romantic involvement to the extent that many poets writing in Arabic and Persian used the mode of a love poem addressed to a boy even when they were not themselves inclined this way.
		In addition and in a different vein, by interpreting passionate male friendship as a vehicle of spiritual transcendence, the Persian mystic Rumi ("The Man from Rum," properly Jalal'l-Dîn [1207-1273]) wrote perhaps the most erotic poetry of all Islamic literature.
		Although the first modern novels show a ribaldry and raciness the genre lost as the self-conscious respectability of the middle class grew, Cleland's sexual explicitness, despite or perhaps because of the fact that it is couched in the new florid pornographic style, kept Fanny Hill outside the pale of canonical literature from the beginning.

	The Origins of African American Literature, 1680-1865. - book review African American Review - Find Articles
		Dickson D. Bruce's The Origins of African American Literature, 1680-1865, is a throwback--and I mean this as a distinct compliment--to the kind of literary history that once was regarded as foundational to scholarship in virtually any field of literary study.
		Bruce's view of African American literature is not bounded by the borders of North America but embraces the writing of Africans and Anglo Africans in England as well as Africans, Atlantic Creoles, and African Americans in North America.
		Major novels of the 1850s--Clotel, The Garies and Their Friends, The Heroic Slave, and Blake--are presented in the useful context of the mass appeal of Uncle Tom's Cabin, and in terms of the evolution of African American character in narrative discourse--but none of these texts is analyzed in detail.
