Performance and identity in nineteenth and early twentieth-century Arican-American creative work.
Daphne A. Brooks is Associate Professor of English and African American Studies at Princeton University. She is the author of "Jeff Buckley's" Grace.
"Daphne A. Brooks has developed a truly wonderful way of matching up odd couples, such as Ada Isaacs Mencken and Sojourner Truth, and finding the kinship marks of 'overlapping diasporas' in their improbable but richly informative union." Joseph Roach, author of Cities of the Dead: Circum-Atlantic Performance "Daphne A. Brooks is a brilliant, creative, and original thinker. Because Brooks so adeptly crosses the disciplinary boundaries of fields as diverse as performance studies, nineteenth-century American literature, and black studies, Bodies in Dissent is an extraordinary model of interdisciplinary scholarship. Brooks's original archival work coupled with her engagement with recent scholarship in cultural studies and studies of the black Atlantic provides us with a beautifully written exploration and theory of black performance practices."--Farah Jasmine Griffin, author of If You Can't Be Free, Be A Mystery: In Search of Billie Holiday
