Du Bois’s Telegram: Literary Resistance and State Containment
Juliana Spahr
Taking her cue from W. E. B. Du Bois, Juliana Spahr explores how state interests have shaped U. S. literature. What is the relationship between literature and politics? Can writing be revolutionary? Can art be autonomous or is escape from nations and nationalisms impossible? As her sobering study affirms, aesthetic resistance is easily domesticated.
