| Publisher Description: Ancestral Spirits: Spirituality as Feminist Praxis in 20th Century Black Women's Literature, explores how spirituality is at the very heart of feminist epistemology for the 20th Century Black female protagonist. It further underscores that whether she is slave, mother, wife or survivor - she is driven by an unseen, unknown force that compels her to rise up against all odds; and that it is this spirituality that is the basis of her unconscious and wholly acted upon, feminist praxis. |
