African American. From Tarzan to dreams from my father - David Peterson Del Mar

Häftad ny bok. Ett par minimala skönhetsfel på pärmen. Se bild. Ett par bland har mkt små veck som resultat av hantering.

frica has long gripped the American imagination. From the Edenic wilderness of Edgar Rice Burroughs’s Tarzan novels to the ‘black Zion’ of Garvey’s Back-to-Africa movement, all manner of Americans - whether white or black, male or female - have come to see Africa as an idealized stage on which they can fashion new, more authentic selves. In this remarkable, panoramic work, David Peterson del Mar explores the ways in which American fantasies of Africa have evolved over time, as well as the role of Africans themselves in subverting American attitudes to their continent.Spanning seven decades, from the post-war period to the present day, and encompassing sources ranging from literature, film and music to accounts by missionaries, aid workers and travel writers, African, American is a fascinating deconstruction of ‘Africa’ as it exists in the American mindset.

Märk väl att en begagnad bok kan vara namnad. Jag går inte igenom dem. Är det mkt viktigt för dig att boken inte är namnad hör av dig innan köp så kollar jag upp det. Jag tar inte ansvar för Postens slarv. Samfraktar givetvis. Jag accepterar även avhämtning av varan.
