Jones's The Known World Coda. 520 This book argues that Catholicism informs a major genre of African American literature in ways and with a significance that has gone largely unrecognized. Sacraments of Memory thus proposes a new framework for understanding the revisionist aims of these works, contextualizing the skepticism they exhibit towards historical realism in terms of a Catholic counter- tradition in American literature that has long been associated with superstition and irrationality. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed April 23, 2018). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Slavery and the church|xCatholic Church.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010113235 650 0 American literature|xAfrican American authors|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85004342|xHistory. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Slavery in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh94008615 650 0 Catholics in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85021242 650 0 African Americans in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85002009 650 7 Slavery and the church|xCatholic Church.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1767759 650 7 American literature|xAfrican American authors.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/807114 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Slavery in literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1120515 650 7 Catholics in literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/849332 650 7 African Americans in literature.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/799727 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1628613|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
