520    "Fourteen conjure tales by one of America's most 
       influential African American fiction writers. This Norton 
       Critical Edition of The Conjure Stories arranges the tales
       chronologically by composition date, allowing readers to 
       discern how Chesnutt experimented with plots and 
       characters and with the idea of the conjure story over 
       time. With one exception, the text of each tale is that of
       the original publication. (The text of 'The Dumb Witness' 
       was established from two typescripts held at the archives 
       of Fisk University.) The stories are accompanied by a 
       thorough and thought-provoking introduction, detailed 
       explanatory annotations, and illustrative materials. 
       'Contexts' presents a wealth of materials chosen by the 
       editors to enrich the reader's understanding of these 
       canonical stories, including a map of the landscape of the
       conjure tales, Chesnutt's journal entry as he began 
       writing fiction of the South, as well as writings by 
       Chesnutt, William Wells Brown, and Paul Laurence Dunbar, 
       among others, on the stories' central motifs--folklore, 
       superstition, voodoo, race, and social identity in the 
       South following the Civil War. 'Criticism' is divided into
       two parts. 'Early Criticism' collects critical notices for
       The Conjure Woman that suggest the volume's initial 
       reception, assessments by William Dean Howells and 
       Benjamin Brawley, and a biographical excerpt by the 
       author's daughter, Helen Chesnutt. 'Modern Criticism' 
       demonstrates rich and enduring interest in The Conjure 
       Stories with ten important essays by Robert Hemenway, 
       William L. Andrews, Robert B. Stepto, John Edgar Wideman, 
       Werner Sollors, Houston A. Baker, Eric J. Sundquist, 
       Richard H. Brodhead, Candace J. Waid, and Glenda Carpio. A
       Chronology of Chesnutt's life and work and a Selected 
       Bibliography are also included."--Publisher description.
