Domestic Allegories of Political Desire: The Black Heroine's Text at the Turn of the Century by Claudia Tate
Why did late-nineteenth-century African-American women novelists use idealized stories of bourgeois courtship and marriage to mount arguments on social reform during a time when resurgent racism conditioned the lives of all black Americans. This is the question at the center of Claudia Tate's examination of the novels of Pauline Hopkins, Amelia Johnson, Katherine Tillman, and Frances Harper.
