Zora Neale Hurston and the Legacy of Black Feminism

Zora Neale Hurston and the Legacy of Black Feminism

The first extended examination into the structure of influence of Zora Neale Hurston’s work on major black women writers, an idea that has been widely accepted, this book explores Hurston’s impact on such authors as Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, Toni Cade Bambara, Rita Dove, and Tracy K. Smith.Focusing specifically on the concept of desire as a liberatory idiom and as the highest expression of self-consciousness and personhood, Chielozona Eze delves into the ethical and social assumptions of Hurston’s aesthetics and feminist visions and their manifestations in the works of the black women writers who came after her. Through philosophical conceptions of desire, and zoning in on Hurston’s Their Eyes were Watching God and its protagonist Janie Crawford, Eze unlocks crucial conceptual and analytic trajectories regarding debates on freedom, personhood and Black feminism, and how such rich interiority appears in key works by Black women. Surveying fiction including The Bluest Eye, Sula, Song of Solomon, and The Color Purple, plays and poetry collections such as Life on Mars, The Body’s Question The Yellow House on the Corner, Thomas and Beulah, this book is a remarkable intervention with important implications for our times.

While most biographies of Hurston take a standard approach to revealing the facts and details of her life, this is the first to look at the role spirituality played in her life and letters. Throughout her fiction, nonfiction, political and social activity, Hurston's spirit shines through, animating all areas of her life. To ignore it is to paint an incomplete picture of a life that carries on through the works she left behind. Plant shows here that Hurston's spirituality helped her to endure the challenges in her life, including chronic ill health, personal and professional setbacks, financial difficulties, and other obstacles that might have crushed a less resilient soul. In revealing this often overlooked area of Hurston's life, Plant offers a more complete biography of this eminent woman of letters.

These poems sense music as a generative force, always gone other ways than culture and commerce need and declare it to travel. Half the book (Zora Neale Hurston) obliquely teases out the practice of “fieldwork” as the study of “getting into the crowd,” and half follows from Charlie Haden’s deployment of “liberation music” as communitarian voice in the face of acts of State targeted at peoples and persons.

This book explores the creativity and life of Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960), the most published African American woman writer of the first half of the twentieth century. A Barnard-educated anthropologist, folklorist and novelist, Hurston, as Cheryl R. Hopson relates, was a woman on the move. Her life spanned a period of rapid technological change and advancement, and one of entrenched racial stratification. Hopson foregrounds how the Jim Crow legal system in the United States formed the material backdrop to Hurston’s life and work, and explores Hurston’s signature novel Their Eyes Were Watching God, as well as her lesser-known works. This biography is an insightful and illuminating look at a remarkable figure, and chronicles the rediscovery of Hurston years after her death.
