Joel Chandler Harris

    9. Dezember 1848 – 3. Juli 1908

    Joel Chandler Harris war ein amerikanischer Journalist, dessen unverwechselbare Stimme die afroamerikanische mündliche Erzähltradition einem breiten Publikum zugänglich machte. Sein revolutionärer Einsatz von Dialekt und seine einprägsame Schelmfigur, Br'er Rabbit, der seinen Witz gegen Widrigkeiten einsetzt, fesselten die Leser. Diese Erzählungen, die in Zeitungen ihren Ursprung hatten, boten eine idealisierte, wenn auch populäre, Vision von Rassenbeziehungen in der Ära nach dem Bürgerkrieg. Harris' Werk feierte den Einfallsreichtum des Volksglaubens und seine anhaltende Anziehungskraft in verschiedenen Gemeinschaften.
