Beschreibung
Langston Hughes (1902-1967), an outstanding black poet, novelist and playwright in modern America. He was the backbone of the "e;Harlem Renaissance"e;. His outstanding achievements in literature made him the "e;Harlem poet laureate"e; as early as the 1920s. Hughes's poetry, nourished by black music and folk songs, incorporated the rhythms of jazz into free verse, so that his poetry was open, untrammeled, and rhythmic as intensely as jazz. His poems are fresh in style, profound in artistic conception, and have a striking and moving power, which has a significant impact on the development of modern American black literature and African black poetry. This collection of poems selects 200 of his 860 most representative works to achieve a good balance between readability and collectability.
