August Wilson's Joe Turner's Come and Gone

August Wilson's Joe Turner's Come and Gone

Herald Loomis you shining! You shining like new money! - Bynum Walker August Wilson considered Joe Turner’s Come and Gone (1984) to be his favourite play of the ten in his award-winning Pittsburgh Cycle. It is a drama that truly examines the roots crossroads and intersections of African American and African American culture. Its characters and choral griots interweave the intricate tropes of migration from the south to the north the effects of slavery black feminism and masculinity and Wilson's theme of finding one's song or identity. This book gives readers an overview of the work from its inception on through its revisions and stagings in regional theatres and on Broadway exploring its use of African American vernacular genres—blues music folk songs folk tales and dance—and nineteenth-century southern post-Reconstruction history. Ladrica Menson-Furr presents Joe Turner's Come and Gone as a historical drama a blues drama an American drama a Great Migration drama and the finest example of Wilson's gift for relocating the African American experience in urban southern cities at the beginning and not the end of the African American experience. | August Wilson's Joe Turner's Come and Gone

Originally published in 1992. What kinds of literacy are appropriate for life and work in the late twentieth century? What historically is the relationship between curriculum and literacy and how is it changing? The essays in this book provide an innovative forum for discussion for what are often two quite distinct enterprises: literacy research and curriculum studies. They re-frame and redraw the traditional boundaries between these two disciplines examining socio-cultural theories and classroom practices in a diverse and lively debate. They explore readings of the modernist/postmodernist debate and specific studies in curriculum politics and history rhetoric language and literacy education media studies and educational linguistics. This multi-voiced anthology brings together researchers from Australia the United Kingdom Canada and the United States in a common critical reassessment of the curriculum/literacy nexus. | The Insistence of the Letter Literacy Studies and Curriculum Theorizing
