lived in Paris, for two years [] and experienced relatively little racial discrimination there. (Cullen) When he came back, from 1934 until the end of his life he taught English, French, and creative writing [] in New York City. (Johnson, 76) He was an imaginative lyric poet, who wrote in the tradition of his role model, John Keats, and was resistant to the new poetic techniques of the Modernists. (Cullen)In summary, the Harlem Renaissance began a rebirth of American arts. In writing, Countee Cullen, Claude McKay, and Langston Hughes exemplify the quality of work which has been a lasting influence on American literature. They all had a lot in common. Their writing styles were very similar. They all lived abroad in Europe (to get away from Sainte 5American injustices). They all had an interest in Communism. They all wrote on the same topics. They all had someone they admired. Countee Cullen, and Langston Hughes grew up hearing McKays work. And McKay got respect from all other young black poets back then. The three of them created some of the best literary works back in the early 1900s. Do you know of any upcoming authors/musicians whose talents resemble the three for the new millennium?...
