Upon completing elementary school he was apprenticed to a cabinetmaker and wheelwright in Browns Town, St. Ann. In 1910 he went to Kingston, where he joined the island's constabulary force. His stint, in the force, though short, was not without its adventure. In 1912 his first volumes of poems, Songs of Jamaica and Constab Ballads, for which he was awarded the Silver Musgrave Medal of the Institute of Jamaica, were published. He migrated to the United States where he became one of the leading writers of the HARLEM NEGRO RENAISSANCE . In 1948 McKay died in Chicago and was buried in New York. In 1977 the Government on behalf of the people of Jamaica posthumously awarded Claude McKay the Order of Jamaica in respect and admiration for his great contribution to literature. noelkingdesign.com

49. Claude McKay (1889-1948) claude mckay (18891948). Contributing Editor Elvin Holt. Bibliography. James R. Giles s claude mckay is a good book for teachers. http://college.hmco.com/english/heath/syllabuild/iguide/mckay.html

Claude McKay (1889-1948) Contributing Editor: Elvin Holt Classroom Issues and Strategies I suggest that teachers begin with McKay's love poems. This approach allows students to relate to McKay on a purely human level and prepares them for the discomforting racial themes that dominate some of the other poems. Students respond to the persistent racism in American society. Some non-black students want to know why they have to read such poems. Many of them believe the poems are "for black people." Some students object to the eroticism of the love poems. "Flame-Heart" evokes the romantic tradition of Wordsworth and Shelley, poets whose work McKay admired greatly. This finely wrought poem, which expresses the poet's deep longing for Jamaica, his beloved homeland, highlights McKay's interest in nonracial themes. "A Red Flower," one of McKay's most striking love poems, features brilliant conceits similar to those found in the poetry of John Donne and other metaphysical poets. Identify the metaphor in the first and last stanzas of the poem. In "Flower of Love," McKay presents another example of his passionate, yet controlled, love poetry. Like "A Red Flower," "Flower of Love" turns on an elaborate conceit, recalling the best work of Andrew Marvell. Describe the poem's central metaphor and explain the reference to the South.

Site Orientation Heath Orientation Timeline Access Author Profile Pages by: Fourth Edition Table of Contents Concise Edition Table of Contents Authors by Name Authors by Year ... Internet Research Guide Textbook Site for: The Heath Anthology of American Literature , Fourth Edition Paul Lauter, General Editor Claude McKay Of the many gifted writers who contributed to the rich literary legacy of the Harlem Renaissance, Claude McKay, a Jamaican immigrant, was clearly the most militant. McKay’s most famous poem, “If We Must Die,” an eloquent and provocative sonnet, was inspired by the violent race riots that erupted in Chicago and other cities in 1919. In other deeply moving, carefully crafted poems, McKay voices his outrage at the treatment of blacks in a racist society. The poem “The Lynching,” for example, is a chilling indictment against the hatred and vigilantism which cost many black Americans their lives in the 1920s and 1930s. However, the social protest verse upon which McKay’s reputation as a poet ultimately rests represents only a small portion of his approximately two hundred published poems. Born in the Clarendon Hills of Jamaica, McKay began writing poetry in childhood. He published two books of dialect verse in 1912. In recognition of this achievement, the Jamaican Institute of Arts and Sciences awarded McKay a medal and a stipend that allowed him to study agriculture briefly at Tuskegee Institute and later at Kansas State University (1912–14). McKay left Kansas State in 1914 to pursue a writing career in New York City, where he became involved with the socialist movement and wrote for radical journals like Max Eastman’s

I have found especially today's article on the 1780 hurricane to be quite of interest to me as I am currently involved in bringing to light the role of natural disasters in the development of Jamaica's history, culture, society, economy and politics and the article on the "Hurricane of 1780" has greatly aided in this direction.

He studied agriculture for two years, first at Tuskegee in Alabama, and then at Kansas State University, but he left school for good to go to New York in 1914, where he worked at menial jobs, including (as Max Eastman remembers) dining-car service on the Pennsylvania railroad. He also had a short career as a restaurant owner, and a brief marriage to Eulalie Imelda Edwards, that same year, but lost both and never was to see his daughter Ruth Hope because his wife had returned to Jamaica. Recognized as a leading writer of the Harlem Renaissance, McKay published his only two American volumes of poetry in 1920 (

55. Claude McKay: If We Must Die claude mckay If We Must Die (1919). Jamaicanborn writer claude mckay responded by writing this sonnet, urging his comrades to fight back. http://www.wsu.edu:8080/~wldciv/world_civ_reader/world_civ_reader_2/mckay.html

Claude McKay: If We Must Die (1919) In 1919 there was a wave of race riots consisting mainly of white assaults on black neighborhoods in a dozen American cities. Jamaican-born writer Claude McKay responded by writing this sonnet, urging his comrades to fight back. It had a powerful impact, then and later. For what reason does McKay say even a doomed resistance is worth while? If we must die, let it not be like hogs Hunted and penned in an inglorious spot, While round us bark the mad and hungry dogs, Making their mock at our accursed lot. If we must die, O let us nobly die, So that our precious blood may not be shed In vain; then even the monsters we defy Shall be constrained to honor us though dead! O kinsmen we must meet the common foe! Though far outnumbered let us show us brave, And for their thousand blows deal one deathblow! What though before us lies the open grave? Like men we'll face the murderous, cowardly pack, Pressed to the wall, dying, but fighting back! Back to table of contents This is an excerpt from Reading About the World, Volume 2

McKay. Along with Langston Hughes and Countee Cullen, McKay is considered one of the great poets of the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s. A man of contradictions, involved by turns with atheism, homosexuality, Islam, Soviet communism, and Marcus Garvey's Black Nationalist movement, McKay at last found that for him only Roman Catholicism offered peace, order, wonder, and truth. Through the early 1920s, McKay continued to see Christianity only as a tool of oppressive white capitalists. He became involved with the Communist party, left the United States, and spent time in Europe, North Africa, and Soviet Russia. He seemed steadfast and resolute in his beliefs, intending never to return to the United States until it had overthrown its capitalist order. But then McKay began to change.
