| Synopsis: |
Michigan State University Press, ProQuest, Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, and The New York Public Library are pleased to present a unique research, study, and teaching resource for professors and students of Black Studies, the "Schomburg Studies on the Black Experience" (SSBE).In the more than thirty-five years since the field of Black Studies established its presence in American higher education, the volume of research, writing, and publications on the global black experience has increased exponentially. Scholars in African American and African Diasporan studies have contributed in significant ways to the development of this new knowledge. So have scholars in mainstream disciplines in the United States and Europe, as well as scholars and intellectuals in Africa and throughout the Americas. When added to the extraordinary volume of research resources on the black experience that existed before the coming of Black Studies, the challenge of selecting appropriate materials for research, for study, and for teaching has become extremely difficult. "Schomburg Studies on the Black Experience" is a resource designed to assist users in making such choices.Both the electronic and the printed editions of "Schomburg Studies on the Black Experience" contain: a critical-review essay for each theme, a selection of essential readings, and research questions for the future.Extensive bibliographies, lists of primary research materials, timelines, and other resources are also included. There is also a multimedia library and links to related websites included in the on-line edition. "Schomburg Studies on the Black Experience" offers users a way to understand the evolution of scholarship on the selected themes and to access the essential literature that supports it. "Schomburg Studies" affirms both the quantity and the quality of the intellectual underpinnings of Black Studies.As part of this collaboration, Michigan State University Press offers the second volume of the book series format that works as a teaching tool with or independently of the database. |
