“哈莱姆文艺复兴运动”是美国黑人文学艺术崛起的标志。黑人作家在20世纪初不再屈从于白人社会所规定的社会位置,开始呼吁和抗议。他们有意识地从黑人生活、传统和民间文化中汲取营养,塑造“新黑人”形象。休斯是这一时期的杰出代表。赫斯顿和赖特继承了美国黑人文学复兴的传统,并使之突破和发展,开启了美国黑人文学关注个体自我意识的新时期。

“Harlem Renaissance Movement ” is a symbol of the rise of black literature and art in the United States. At the beginning of the 20th century, black writers no longer succumb to the social position set by white society and began appealing and protesting. They consciously draw nutrition from black life, tradition and folk culture to create the image of “new black man.” Hughes is an outstanding representative of this period. Heston and Wright inherited the tradition of Afro-American literary renaissance and made breakthroughs and developments that opened the new period in which African-American literature focused on individual self-awareness.
