Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Trade Paperback. Spirituals have inspired and illuminated the lives of generations of Americans. Invented, edited, and transformed by those who sang them, spirituals are a source of pride and of cultural knowledge - strengthening, heartening, and informing. Artis Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson, having drawn courage and wisdom from these songs all her life, here presents the images they evoke in her. She incorporates texts into the art - some from a little book of spirituals that was given to her when she was nine years old, some from a lifetime of 'just hearing songs'. Aminah has 're-remembered' these songs, adding to them, rearranging them, interpreting them. In this collectiong of striking drawings she passes on to the children of the future 'the teachings', the lessons of the past, the lessons of the spirituals, as she has understood them. Illustrations. 63 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
