	Rudolph Fisher - The Black Renaissance in Washington, DC (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Rudolph Fisher was born in Washington, DC on May 9, 1897 and reared in Providence, Rhode Island.
		Rudolph Fisher is considered one of the major or key literary figures of the Renaissance.
		Fisher's fiction gave the reader glimpses of the ordinary fls living and working in their community.

	Other Voices 1.3 (January 1999), Adrienne Gosselin, "The Psychology of Uncertainty: (Re)Inscribing Indeterminacy in ...
		What is unique about Fisher’s treatment—and what has been overlooked in the face of images spawned by the white modernist cult of primitivism, spawned by premise itself [13] —is that Fisher is the only creative writer of the period to infuse newly emerging pan-African scholarship into fl modernist literature.
		Fisher splits the third phase, investigation, into two lines of inquiry—the false line of inquiry followed by Archer and Dart, who believe Frimbo to have killed his assistant; and the line of inquiry pursued by Frimbo, which leads to the killer’s apprehension.
		Indeed, Fisher’s denouement is less concerned with “the isolation and specification of guilt” than in becoming a focus of interest in its own right, for the denouement of The Conjure-Man Dies not only fails to produce the “clarity, logic and order” expected of the formula, it secures indeterminacy as the novel’s overall effect.

	Harlem - Racialised Urbanity
		If we turn to the literary field the work of Rudolph Fisher develops a critical cosmopolitanism – an urbane attitude which is formulated as the ideas of race pride, aesthetic excellence and civility meet the contradictory demands of a class-differentiated and multi-ethnic urban polis.
		As Fisher traces the shape that is Harlem’s physical reality and signature he marks out the cultural and class dimensions of the race capital and marries social institutions, material location and social aspirations.
		Rather, Fisher understands that the ‘Bang Clash’ modernism of Harlem – to use Amiri Baraka’s evocative description – is made up by the cacophony of these voices as they seek to define the nature of urbanism and racial being for African Americans (Baraka, 1979, 101).

	The mystery man of the Harlem Renaissance: novelist Rudolph Fisher was a forerunner of Walter Mosley. - The Walls of ...
		Rudolph Fisher's Harlem was peopled by fls representing occupations from street hustler to police sergeant to physician, and complexions ranged from fl to light-enough-to-pass.
		Fisher's sharp prose also adeptly describes the lay of Harlem itself: "It must be explained that of Manhattan's two most famous streets, neither Broadway nor Fifth Avenue reaches Harlem in proper guise.
		The investigation of the apparent murder and resurrection of a fortuneteller is undertaken by tough, urbane Detective Sergeant Perry Dart and an erudite physician, John Archer.

		Rudolph Fisher* was born in Washington, DC on this date in 1897.

	Slant Magazine - Film Review: Antwone Fisher
		Emotionally uplifting and inspiring in the most obnoxiously genial ways imaginable, the film is the kind of nondescript portrait of determination and success that will be lapped up by viewers ready to offer their pity instead of trying to comprehend how individual perseverance is related to race and class.
		In recounting Fisher's life as a Navy cadet who used his moral code to trump anger-management issues after suffering a childhood full of cruelty and maltreatment, Washington invites only the most bottom-feeding responses of sympathy and distress to this true story, exploiting its trite feel-good dilemmas and turning Antwone's individuality into Hollywood sap.
		Fisher, like Moonlight Mile writer-director Brad Silberling, submits his life story as narcissistic melodrama, making it even less interesting than it would be otherwise.

		Rudolph Fisher and his stories work well in a short story unit because, first, his stories, especially “Miss Cynthie,” reflect the energy and vibrancy of Harlem during its renaissance.
		Rudolph Fisher was a prolific writer in his brief life; he had fifteen published short stories in addition to several unpublished ones, two plays, and one novel.
		It is with this perspective or point of view that Fisher captures the spirit, the energy, and the life of the Negroes dying the Harlem Renaissance.

	Harlem - Rudolph Fisher (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Rudolph Fisher published fifteen short stories between 1925 and 1935 as well as two novels and a number of journalistic pieces and scientific articles.
		Fisher died of intestinal cancer contracted through exposure to the x-rays with which he worked and his premature demise is cited as one of those episodes which symbolises the death of the New Negro movement (Levering Lewis, 1982, 304-5).
		In rather more prosaic terms the lack of a collection of his stories before his death meant that for a long period his stories were unavailable to anyone but those willing to trawl through the archives of the magazines which originally published his work.

		A physician and writer, Fisher was the author of several short stories and novels.
		Fisher, who lived most of his life in Harlem and Jamaica, Long Island, died at the age of 37 in 1934.
		Fisher evokes the biblical tale of Joshua to illustrate his concern for the African American’s search for a “true nature.” It is in this spiritual battle that the divergent segments of Harlem are drawn together in order to battle the “establishment” inside the walls of Jericho.

	The Conjure Man Dies, a CurtainUp review
		Had he not died at age 37 of cancer, Rudolph Fisher might have become as well-known a member of the Harlem Renaissance as writers like Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston.
		Most of his work is currently available in print and there's a Rudolph Fisher newsletter for fans and scholars.
		Fisher's linking of Western science and African spirituality probably works better on the page than the stage where it tends to slow down what should be an exciting thriller about the discovery and disappearance of a corpse from the mysterious Frimbo's digs above an undertaking parlor.

	Paula Woods' Excerpt of SPOOKS, SPIES, AND PRIVATE EYES
		Understanding that Roberts, Fisher, Schuyler, and Dunbar-Nelson wrote mysteries during a period that coincided with the Golden Age of detective fiction places their characters' patterns of speech and habits, and even the authors' plots, in another context, one that gives a more complete picture of the era's cast of players than heretofore imagined.
		Rudolph Fisher, a handsome young physician, was one of the more popular figures of the period, known for his essays, award-winning short stories, and a nongenre novel.
		While Bailey has shown that Fisher was not the first fl to write a mystery novel, he was the first to set his story in the fl community and to address issues important to American Negroes, including their relationship to their African ancestry, color prejudice, and superstition.

	The Route To Active Lifestyle - The Conjure-Man Dies: A Mystery Tale of Dark Harlem (Ann Arbor Paperbacks) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		DuBois castigated the group of younger writers of which Fisher was a part for sensationalizing low life rather than celebrating the "talented tenth" of which they were presumably a part.
		I don't know if Fisher was stung by this, but the protagonists include a physician (like Fisher himself), a policeman who is the only fl who has risen to the rank of detective, and an African prince with a princely sense of noblesse oblige.
		Unfortunately, Fisher did not live to hone his craft, leaving only this and _The Walls of Jericho_ and a few stories.

		For years, Charlie Chan's stereotypical sidekick Birmingham Brown, popularized by the 1930s movie series, was the only commonly seen image of the fl detective.
		And yet, by 1932, Rudolph Fisher had already written The Conjure-Man Dies, the first detective novel to feature a fl protagonist.
		In this sequel work, John Archer, a suave Harlem physician, and his detective pal Perry Dart provided a unique twist on the Holmes/Watson team, and foreshadowed Chester Himes's memorable duo, Coffin Ed Johnson and Grave Digger Jones, who dominated the literary fl crime scene for about thirty years-from the 1950s to the 1980s.
