zu den Rezensionen ...
Kein Zweifel, dieser Mann Langston Hughes war ein bedeutender Poet und schrieb so, dass auch einfache, ungeschulte Menschen ihn verstehen konnten und können. Einigen Leserinnen und Lesern wird es vielleicht auffallen, dass der Herausgeber nicht über Hughes als "schwarzen Dichter" oder als "afroamerikanischen Lyriker" schreibt. Für ihn ist Hughes ein Mensch wie er selbst gewesen, nur eben schwarzhäutig und somit gezwungen, in einer Welt zu leben, die nicht seine war und ist; das verhielte sich natürlich nicht anders, wäre der Dichter rot-, gelb- oder braunhäutig gewesen. Diese Tatsache spielt eine Rolle in den Bildtexten. Für den Herausgeber, der sie für diesen Band geschrieben hat, zählt allein, was ein Mensch mit seiner besonderen Hautfarbe ist, tut und will sein Charakter.
Max Frisch ist im vorliegenden Buch mit einem Aufsatz über die Lage der Farbigen und ihr Verhältnis zu den Weissen vertreten, so, wie er beides in der Zeit erlebte, die er in den USA verbrachte ... Er wirkte als Schriftsteller und Politiker in der Schweiz in mancher Hinsicht ähnlich wie Hughes in den USA. Beide liessen sich nicht vom Druck der öffentlichen Meinung zum Schweigen bringen und vertraten tapfer ihre Ansichten. Die Sprache und die Macht, die sie ausübt, Bedeutung und Kraft des Worts standen bei beiden im Zentrum ihres Lebens. Es ist nicht erstaunlich, dass sich Frisch am Ende seines Aufsatzes auf Hughes beruft.

Aussage von Langston Hughes
Der hier vom McCarthy-Ausschuss verhörte (Foto) James Langston Hughes (1902 - 1967) hat als einer der ersten Autoren in Reportagen, Romanen und Kurzgeschichten, vor allem aber in seinen Gedichten das Ghetto-Leben der Afro-Amerikaner in den USA beschrieben. Er "stellte anklagend die Rassendiskriminierung der amerikanischen schwarzen Bevölkerung dar, wobei er den Dialekt Harlems einsetzte und durch literarische Adaption von Jazzelementen deren melancholische und elegische Stimmungen nachgestaltete, z.B. "The weary blues" (Gedichte, 1926) und "Das Buch vom Jazz" (1954)." (Meyers großes Taschenlexikon, 1990).
Mr. HUGHES: Es tut mir leid, Sir, ich habe das nicht verstanden.
Senator DIRKSEN: Filme und die Stimme Amerikas - haben Sie das verstanden?
Mr. HUGHES: Ja.
Senator DIRKSEN: Sie stehen hier, und ich glaube, wir werden uns wahrscheinlich auf einige davon beziehen.
Mr. HUGHES: Nein, Sir. Ich vermute, Sie meinen: Mitglied der Kommunistischen Partei, nicht wahr?

Hughes, Langston (1902-1967) Langston Hughes, whose literary legacy is enormous and varied, was closeted, but homosexuality was an important influence on his literary imagination, and many of his poems may be read as gay texts. James Mercer Langston Hughes, born February 1, 1902, in Joplin, Missouri, began life in poverty and frequently moved from city to city as his parents tried unsuccessfully to escape racism and economic hardship. Hughes's father, an attorney, gave up on the United States and, in 1903, left his family to live and work in Mexico. The young Hughes lived alternately with his maternal grandmother in Lawrence, Kansas, and his mother in whatever city she could find work. Sponsor Message.

From New World Encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation search Previous (Landscape painting (European tradition)) Next (Languages of India) Langston Hughes, photographed by Carl Van Vechten, 1936 Langston Hughes (February 1, 1902 – May 22, 1967) was an American poet, novelist, playwright, short story writer, and newspaper columnist, best known as one of the principle figures in the movement known as the Harlem Renaissance. Hughes is best remembered today as a poet, though he exhibited considerable talent for prose as well. His poetry is infused with a uniquely African-American sensibility, and written in the plain tones of American speech. Hughes cited Walt Whitman as one of the greatest influences on his poetry. Hughes' poetry, like Whitman's, is prophetic, all-encompassing, and spoken from the heart. Hughes remains a major influence to African-American writers and poets, as well as to American poets of all races and creeds. He has been criticized, at times, for his somewhat antiquated views on racial pride, as well as for his socialist sympathies. His poetry, however, is still refreshingly new and powerfully moving even after more than half a century. Hughes' poems, written in a style that followed the patterns of everyday speech, are some of the most strikingly direct in the English language—and Hughes' messages of equity, harmony, and unity are of as much importance today as they have ever been.

Langston Hughes (1902-1967) African-American poet, novelist, and playwright, who became one of the foremost interpreters of racial relationships in the United States. Influenced by the Bible, W. E. B. Du Bois, and Walt Whitman , Hughes depicted realistically the ordinary lives of black people. Many of his poems, written in rhythmical language, have been set to music. Hughes's poems were meant 'to be read aloud, crooned, shouted and sung'. "Rest at pale evening...
A tall slim tree...
Night coming tendrerly
Black like me.

(from Dream Variations Crisis (1921). As an adolescent in Cleveland he participated in the activity of Karamu Players, and published in 1921 his first play, THE GOLDEN PIECE in 1921. Supported by his father, Hughes entered in the early 1920s the Columbia University, New York. For the permanent disappointment of his father, Hughes soon abandoned his studies, and participated in more entertaining jazz and blues activities in nearby Harlem. Disgusted with life at the university and to see the world, he enlisted as a steward on a freighter bound to West Africa. He traveled to Paris, worked as a doorman and a bouncer of a night club, and continued to Italy. After his return to the United States, Hughes worked in menial jobs and wrote poems, which earned him scholarship to Lincoln University in Pennsylvania. According an anecdote, Hughes was "discovered" by the poet Vachel Lindsay in Washington. Lindsay was dining at the Wardman Park Hotel, where Hughes worked as a busboy, and dropped his poems beside the Lindsay's dinner plate. Lindsay included several of them in his poetry reading. It prompted interviews of the "busboy poet". Hughes quit his job and moved to New York City.

African American poet and playwright American author Langston Hughes, a moving spirit in the artistic movement of the 1920s often called the Harlem Renaissance, expressed the mind and spirit of most African Americans for nearly half a century.
Early life
Langston Hughes was born in Joplin, Missouri, on February 1, 1902, to Carrie M. Langston and James N. Hughes. His parents separated soon after his birth, and Hughes was raised mainly by his mother, his grandmother, and a childless couple, the Reeds. He attended public schools in Kansas and Illinois and upon graduating elementary school, Hughes was named class poet, although he had never even written a poem. That title sparked an interest in writing poetry.

    Hughes, Langston (James Langston Hughes), , American poet and central figure of the Harlem Renaissance, b. Joplin, Mo., grad. Lincoln Univ., 1929. He worked at a variety of jobs and lived in several countries, including Mexico and France, before Vachel Lindsay discovered his poetry in 1925. The publication of The Weary Blues (1926), his first volume of poetry, enabled Hughes to attend Lincoln Univ. in Pennsylvania, from which he graduated in 1929. His writing, which often uses dialect and jazz rhythms, is largely concerned with depicting African American life, particularly the experience of the urban African American. Among his later collections of poetry are Shakespeare in Harlem One-Way Ticket (1949), and Selected Poems (1959). Hughes's numerous other works include several plays, notably Mulatto (1935); books for children, such as
