蓝斯顿休斯(Langston
Hughes)是1920年代的非裔美国人艺术运动:哈莱姆文艺复兴运动(Harlem
Renaissance)中,最重要的作家及思想家之一。哈莱姆文艺复兴运动是一项用来颂扬黑人的生活及文化的活动。休斯的创作深受他在纽约市哈莱姆区的生活影响,哈莱姆区是最主要的非裔美国人居住地区。他的文学作品有助塑造美国文学及政治。就像其他活跃于哈莱姆文艺复兴运动中的艺术家,休斯也拥有强烈的种族自尊;藉由他所创作的诗词、小说、剧本、散文及童书,他提倡平等、诅咒种族歧视及不公,并赞美非裔美国人的文化、幽默感及灵性。
Langston Hughes was one of the most important writers and thinkers of the Harlem Renaissance, which was the African American artistic movement in the 1920s that celebrated black life and culture. Hughes's creative genius was influenced by his life in New York City's Harlem, a primarily African American neighborhood. His literary works helped shape American literature and politics. Hughes, like others active in the Harlem Renaissance, had a strong sense of racial pride. Through his poetry, novels, plays, essays, and children's books, he promoted equality, condemned racism and injustice, and celebrated African American culture, humor, and spirituality.
