Black print unbound : the Christian recorder, African American literature, and periodical culture
Gardner, EricAuthor
'Black Print Unbound' explores the development of The Christian Recorder during and just after the American Civil War. As a study of the official African Methodist Episcopal Church newspaper (a periodical of national reach and scope among free African Americans), 'Black Print Unbound' is thus at once a massive recovery effort of a publication by African Americans for African Americans, a consideration of the nexus of African Americanist inquiry and print culture studies, and an intervention in the study of literatures of the Civil War, faith communities, and periodicals.
