Brent Edwards suggests that diaspora is less a historical condition than a set of practices: the claims, correspondences, and collaborations through which black intellectuals pursue a variety of international alliances. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEdwards elucidates the workings of diaspora by tracking the wealth of black transnational print culture between the world wars, exploring the connections and exchanges among New York-based publications (such as \u003ci\u003eOpportunity\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Negro World\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Crisis\u003c\/i\u003e) and newspapers in Paris (such as \u003ci\u003eLes Continents\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLa Voix des Nègres\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eL'Etudiant noir\u003c\/i\u003e). In reading a remarkably diverse archive--the works of writers and editors from Langston Hughes, René Maran, and Claude McKay to Paulette Nardal, Alain Locke, W. E. B. Du Bois, George Padmore, and Tiemoko Garan Kouyaté--\u003ci\u003eThe Practice of Diaspora\u003c\/i\u003e takes account of the highly divergent ways of imagining race beyond the barriers of nation and language. In doing so, it reveals the importance of translation, arguing that the politics of diaspora are legible above all in efforts at negotiating difference among populations of African descent throughout the world.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 408\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.05 x 9.2 x 6.46 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 10, 2003\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45397389213798,"sku":"9780674011038","price":69.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/dUtTOWVJTlNlbUxsZjZ6dWhsa045dz09.webp?v=1775433896","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/the-practice-of-diaspora-literature-translation-and-the-rise-of-black-internationalism-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
