Understanding I know why the caged bird sings : a student casebook to issues, sources, and historical documents

Author:	Joanne Megna-Wallace
Publisher:	Westport, Conn. : Greenwood Press, 1998.
Series:	'">Greenwood Press "Literature in context" series.
Edition/Format:	Book : Biography : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	Maya Angelou's autobiography I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings was nominated for a National Book Award, yet in 1995 it topped the list of books most frequently challenged in schools and libraries. This interdisciplinary collection of documents and commentary explores the historical and social context, as well as the contemporary issues and controversies, raised by Angelou's autobiography. A rich resource for teachers and students, it will help to enhance the reader's understanding of the historical and social forces that shaped Maya Angelou's experience - race relations in the pre-civil rights South, segregated schools, the African American church, and the African American family. It also examines the issue of childhood sexual abuse, the inclusion of which has been the basis of most of the challenges to the autobiography, and the issue of the work's censorship since its publication.  Read more...
