Charles Waddell Chesnutt, 1858-1932 Chesnutt, Charles W. 1858-1932, Writer. "The Goophered Grapevine," an unusual dialect story that displayed intimate knowledge of black folk culture in the South, was Chesnutt's first nationally recognized work of fiction. Its publication in the August 1887 issue of the Atlantic Monthly marked the first time that a short story by a black had appeared in that prestigious magazine. After subsequent tales in this vein were accepted by other magazines, Chesnutt submitted to Houghton, Mifflin a collection of these stories, which was published in 1899 as The Conjure Woman. His second collection of short fiction, The Wife of His Youth and Other Stories of the Color Line (1899), ranged over a broader area of southern and northern racial experience than any previous writer on black American life had attempted. These two volumes were popular enough to convince Houghton, Mifflin to publish Chesnutt's first novel, The House Behind the Cedars

Charles Waddell Chesnutt (1858-1932) Contributing Editor: William L. Andrews Classroom Issues and Strategies Classroom issues include: How critical or satirical of blacks is Chesnutt in his portrayal of them? Does he treat them with sympathy, even when they behave foolishly? Is Chesnutt's satire biting and distant or self-involving and tolerant? There's rarely one source of authority in a Chesnutt story. Different points of view compete for authority. Get the students to identify the different points of view and play them against each other. Stress that Chesnutt's conjure stories were written in such a way as not to identify their author as an African-American. How effective is Chesnutt in this effort? Students want to know what Chesnutt's social purposes were in writing his conjure stories. How could stories about slavery have any bearing on the situation of blacks and on race relations at the turn of the centurywhen Chesnutt wroteand today? Major Themes, Historical Perspectives, and Personal Issues Major themes include the following: Chesnutt's attitude toward the Old South; the myth of the plantation and the happy darkey, the mixed-blood (monster or natural and even an evolutionary improvement); and miscegenation as a natural process, not something to be shocked by.

31. Ohio Reading Road Trip | Charles Waddell Chesnutt Biography charles waddell chesnutt Born June 20, 1858 Died November 15, 1932.Son of free blacks from Fayetteville, North Carolina, charles http://www.ohioreadingroadtrip.org/chesnutt/

Charles Waddell Chesnutt Born: June 20, 1858 Died: November 15, 1932 Son of free blacks from Fayetteville, North Carolina, Charles Waddell Chesnutt was born in Cleveland , Ohio. He lived in Cleveland for eight years until his family returned to North Carolina and made a living operating a grocery store. Chesnutt worked part time in the store to help out his family, but spent his days attending a school created by the postwar Freedman's Bureau. When he was eight years old, financial necessity forced the Chesnutt family to move to Charlotte, North Carolina and start teaching. At the age of twenty, he married Susan W. Perry, a native of Fayetteville, and became principal of the Fayetteville State Normal School for Negroes. (The school would later become Fayetteville State University and name its library after Chesnutt.) Despite a successful and burgeoning education career, Chesnutt dreamed of expanding his skills, and began writing in 1880. He continued his education, privately studying literature, foreign languages, music, and stenography. Chesnutt was light skinned and could pass for white if he desired. But he chose instead to bring to light the injustices of slavery. In one of his journal entries in 1880, he wrote: "The object of my writings would not be so much the elevation of the colored people as the elevation of the whites, for I consider the unjust spirit of caste which is so insidious as to pervade a whole nation, and so powerful as to subject a whole race and all connected to it to scorn and social ostracism I consider this a barrier to the moral progress of the American people; and I would be one of the first to head a determined, organized crusade against it. Not a fierce indiscriminate onslaught; not an appeal to force, for this is something that force can but slightly affect; but a moral revolution which must be brought about in a different manner."

Bibliography Download the PDF Introduction ‘‘The Sheriff’s Children’’ was one of Charles Waddell Chesnutt’s first pieces of fiction exploring the insidious effect of racism on America. Collected in The Wife of His Youth, and Other Stories of the Color Line eleven years after its initial magazine publication, even at the turn of the century ‘‘The Sheriff’s Children’’ stood out for its indictment of white society in contributing to the problems faced by African Americans. Many of the other stories in the collection dealt with internal ‘‘African American’’ issues—that is, how African Americans dealt with the problems of race, skin color, and prejudice among themselves. Such stories, including the title story, were generally more well received at the time of the collection’s initial publication, in 1899. Such issues as racial intolerance, racial violence, and particularly racial intermingling did not sit well with the American reading public or its white reviewers. Only a handful of white Americans—though esteemed literary figures—publicly praised Chesnutt’s work. The majority criticized him for bringing such issues as miscegenation to the forefront and implied he would do better to return to the folktales he had previously written to such acclaim.
