The imagination is integrative. That's how you make the new by putting something else with what you've got. And I'm unashamedly an American integrationist. The antidote to hubris, to overweening pride, is irony, that capacity to discover and systematize ideas. Or, as Emerson insisted, the development of consciousness, consciousness, consciousness.

84. American Masters . Ralph Ellison | PBS A description of the life of ralph ellison and a timeline. http://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters/database/ellison_r.html

Ralph Ellison by Anne Seidlitz I If Wright's protest literature was a natural outcome of a brutal childhood spent in the deep South, Ellison's more affirming approach came out of a very different background in Oklahoma. A "frontier" state with no legacy of slavery, Oklahoma in the 1910s created the possibility of exploring a fluidity between the races not possible even in the North. Although a contemporary recalled that the Ellisons were "among the poorest" in Oklahoma City, Ralph still had the mobility to go to a good school, and the motivation to find mentors, both black and white, from among the most accomplished people in the city. Ellison would later say that as a child he observed that there were two kinds of people, those "who wore their everyday clothes on Sunday, and those who wore their Sunday clothes every day. I wanted to wear Sunday clothes every day." Ellison's life-long receptivity to the variegated culture that surrounded him, beginning in Oklahoma City, served him well in creating a new take on literary modernism in INVISIBLE MAN. The novel references African-American folktales, songs, the blues, jazz, and black traditions like playing the dozens much as T.S. Eliot and James Joyce had referenced classical Western and Eastern civilization in THE WASTELAND and ULYSSES. An added difference for Ellison was that his modernist narrative was also a vehicle for inscribing his own and the black identity as well as a roadmap for anyone experiencing themselves as "invisible," unseen. "Time" magazine essayist Roger Rosenblatt would say: "Ralph Ellison taught me what it is to be an American."

SOUTH CAROLINIANA LIBRARY UNIVERSITY SOUTH CAROLINIANA SOCIETY MANUSCRIPTS COLLECTIONS Two letters, 1990-1992, Ralph Ellison to Lowry Ware T wo letters, 1990-1992, from novelist Ralph Ellison (1914-1994) to Erskine College history professor Lowry Ware reveal Ellison's profound interest in his South Carolina roots, and especially his "attempts to give order to my grandfather's [Alfred Ellison, of Abbeville] ambiguity as former slave, law man (`magistrate'), farmer-politician, and insightful but unlettered citizen"¾a "crossword puzzle of a legend." In an eight-page typewritten letter of 7 September 1990, Ellison acknowledges Ware's special contribution to the family research ("your gift from my grandfather's past"), remarking that "not only is it one of the most unexpected communications I've ever received, but it does much to fill some of the gaps in my vague knowledge of an ancestor whose story has intrigued me since my childhood." Ellison proceeds to identify his grandfather as "the respected patriarch of a family whose oldest members had migrated to my birthplace in Oklahoma but lived worlds away in South Carolina. Therefore I knew of his existence only through older relatives who endowed his image with an aura of authority that I had no way of grasping." Through an aunt, Ellison had learned that his grandfather "had once had a role in local politics, and that one of his brothers had served in the South Carolina legislature." He speaks of having taken "an abstract pride in being the grandson of the mysterious Alfred Ellison," whom he described from a photograph found among his father's possessions¾"A brown-skinned patriarch with veiled eyes and head of thick dark hair who faced the camera sporting a white goatee that was carefully trimmed in the then current style."

Subjects Title and Subtitle ISBN Author Keyword The Critical Response to Ralph Ellison Edited by Robert J. Butler Arts and Letters, Critical Responses in , No. 35 (ISSN: Greenwood Press . Westport, Conn. . 296 pages LC 00-020767. ISBN Reference Book) Available (Status Information Updated 5/24/2004) Add to Shopping Cart ** Description ** "Abundantly demonstrating his thesis that the basic questions and concerns of Ellison criticism have been present from the first, Butler has provided a most important collection for scholars of African American literature as well as of Ellison." Choice Ralph Ellison's literary career began in 1937 with the publication of his review of Waters Edward Turpin's These Low Grounds. Over the next 15 years he published 10 short stories and 37 essays on literary, cultural, and political topics. But when Invisible Man was published in 1952, Ellison received immediate acclaim from a wide variety of critics, scholars, and novelists. While his novel emerged as a major work of African American literature, it also engaged the European literary tradition and influenced an entire generation of post-World War II writers. Ellison is now one of the most studied African American writers, and the posthumous publication of his second novel, Juneteenth, in 1999 has drawn even more attention to his contribution. Through previously published reviews and essays, and original material, this book charts the response to Ellison's writings. While the bulk of the volume focuses on Invisible Man, the book also includes sections devoted to Ellison's short fiction and nonfiction, as well as posthumous estimates of his work. A chronology highlights the most important events in his life and career, while an introductory essay overviews the broad trends in Ellison scholarship. The volume concludes with a selected bibliography of primary and secondary works.

The canonical black American writers Ralph Ellison and Albert Murray felt their kinship as voracious undergraduates at the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama in the 1930s. They knew each other by their jazz enthusiasms in Armstrong, Bessie Smith and Ellington and by their reading lists: starting with the English novelists Fielding and the Brontes, then the European and American moderns T. S. Eliot, Auden, Faulkner, Hemingway, Gide, Malraux. Where did today's idea of "black literature" come from? Join our forum online. For Ellison and Murray both, the lifetime project became to see 300 years' survival in American slavery and segregation in the light of world literature and then to write the folklore and the reality of that experience at the level of the Russian novelists, in a black American idiom. These were the dreams that produced Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man , Murray's influential essays, and a memorable friendship.

holographic tropes Up Home Fiction Non-Fiction ... Shop the aesthetics of ralph ellison's invisible man Ralph Ellison painstakingly crafted a separate world in Invisible Man , a novel that succeeds because it is an intricate aesthetic creation humane, compassionate, and yet gloriously devoid of a moral. Social comment is neither the aim nor the drive of art, and Ellison did not attempt to document a plight. He created a place where race is reflected and distorted, where pithy generalities are dismissed, where personal and aesthetic prisms distill into an individualized, articulate consciousness it is impossible, not to mention foolish and simplistic, to attempt to exhort a moral from the specific circumstances of the narrator, who is not a cardboard martyr and who doesn’t stand for anyone other than himself: he does not represent the Everyman, nor does he epitomize thesufferings of his race. The narrator can prompt questions about and discussions on both themes precisely because his is an individualized experience unassailable, apolitical and ultimately aesthetic. Ellison succeeded by projecting his words through several funhouse mirrors, and particularly by carefully layering the valences and meanings of specific images any aesthetic experience, specially the written word, is inherently a distortion of reality.

LC INFORMATION BULLETIN June 23, 1997 A Home for Ralph Ellison's Work Fanny McConnell Ellison Visits Library On May 1, Fanny McConnell Ellison, widow of Ralph Ellison (1914-94), visited the Library to inspect one of the special meeting rooms that houses the Ralph Ellison collection in the Northwest Pavilion in the Jefferson Building. The donation of the Ellison papers to the Library was announced in February 1996, and the full collection will be received over a four-year period. (Photo by Yvonne French) Alice Birney, the American literature specialist in the Manuscript Division, has responsibility for the papers. Upon completion of the terms of acquisition, the Library will receive approximately 140 cartons of various sizes containing manuscript drafts and notes for both published and unpublished works, speeches, correspondence, files, photographs and recordings and Ellison's entire working library. As Ellison's papers are unpacked and organized, an archivist will prepare a "finding aid," an unpublished register that describes the material. Soon, the public will have the opportunity to view Ralph Ellison's "working library," which will be displayed near the Great Hall, in keeping with his wishes that it be housed in a unique institution that belongs to all Americans.

98. Lives Well Lived: Ralph Ellison; Prescience, In Black And White An Article published at January 1st, 1995 in the New York Times by Roger Rosenblatt. http://partners.nytimes.com/books/99/06/20/specials/ellison-lives.html

January 1, 1995 Lives Well Lived: Ralph Ellison; Prescience, In Black and White By ROGER ROSENBLATT he critic Cyril Connolly once defined a classic as a book still read a decade after it is published. Ralph Ellison's "Invisible Man," which won the National Book Award in 1953, was instantly recognized as a masterpiece, a novel that captured the grim realities of racial discrimination as no book had. Its reputation grew as Ellison retreated into a mythic literary silence that made his one achievement definitive. Only the faintest tremor of warning prevented me from responding, "And I am the King of Siam." The man on the telephone had begun: "Mr. Rosenblatt? I'm Ralph Ellison." Friends of mine pull pranks like that. As it happened, it was Ralph Ellison. He was calling to correct something I had written about "Invisible Man" in a book. This was 1973. The book was called "Black Fiction," and my publisher had sent Ellison an early copy. In my comments on "Invisible Man," I had done my best to figure out the literary values of the novel: theme, characters, images the conventional stuff that is supposed to be noted by a dutiful young teacher of literature. "But what you did not say, Mr. Rosenblatt," Ellison told me with polite Southern severity, "is that the novel itself is a social document. That the Invisible Man writes a story at all makes a social statement." I asked him: "But haven't you always argued that if black American writing only made social statements, it wouldn't be taken seriously as literature?"

No less successful than in its original form, the play was well on its way to a record-breaking seven-and-a-half-year run, and that alone was enough to increase my expectations. And so much so that I failed to note the irony of circumstance that would have as my introduction to New York theater a play with a southern setting and characters that were based upon a type and class of whites whom I had spent the last three years trying to avoid. Had I been more alert, it might have occurred to me that somehow a group of white Alabama farm folk had learned of my presence in New York, thrown together a theatrical troupe, and flown north to haunt me. But being dazzled by the lights, the theatrical atmosphere, the babble of the playgoing crowd, it didn't. And yet that irony arose precisely from the mixture of motives practical, educational, and romantic
