UW-CKS congratulates Assistant Professor of American Ethnic Studies, Jang Wook Huh, on his receipt of the 2022 Constance M. Rourke Prize<\/a>. The Constance M. Rourke Prize is awarded annually to the best article published in\u00a0American Quarterly<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>that was written by a current member of the American Studies Association.<\/p>\n

Professor’s Huh’s piece, “The Harlem Renaissance in Translation: Socialism, Nostalgia, and the Multilingual Spaces of Diaspora,” was published in the September 2021 special issue addressing language and translation. For details on the article, please see below.<\/p>\n

\"\"Korean writers living in the United States and Korea translated the poetry of the Harlem Renaissance in the 1930s, a decade in which the so-called New Negro Movement in northern American cities was declining and Japanese assimilation policies in colonial Korea were accelerating. For their work of translation, Han H\u016dkku (1909\u20131979) used the original text of The New Negro<\/em>\u00a0(1925) by Alain Locke, and Han S\u014frya (1900\u20131976) and No Ch’uns\u014fng (1898\u20131940) drew on Japanese sources on the literature and history of the African diaspora. I argue that these Korean intellectuals explored the sense of nostalgia and the idea of class consciousness in the black literary tradition to articulate their diasporic, socialist, and utopian visions. By examining the roles of Korean and Japanese knowledge production in disseminating black culture, this essay attempts to expand the scope of American studies into a multilingual and transpacific context and thereby reconsiders a US-centric understanding of cultural circulation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
