Psychic Duality of Afro-Americans in Novels of W. E. B. DuBois.
Stewart, James B.
Phylon, v44 n2 p93-107 Jun 1983
Examines treatment of "double-consciousness" in DuBois' novels in the light of (1) the extent to which it provides Blacks with a vision unavailable to non-Blacks; (2) the nature and strength of cultural ties that bind Blacks together; and (3) the process by which liberation of the Black psyche is achieved.
