Joggin' Erlong, Paul Laurence Dunbar

Paul Laurence Dunbar Books

Joggin’ Erlong was the final collection of Dunbar’s poetry published during his lifetime. His health continued to decline after his diagnosis with tuberculosis. Separated from his wife in 1902, Dunbar eventually returned home to Dayton to live with his mother, Matilda. Much of his later work between 1902-1906 reflects his increasingly ill health.

Lyrics Of Sunshine And Shadow, Paul Laurence Dunbar

Paul Laurence Dunbar Books

Howdy Honey Howdy, Paul Laurence Dunbar

Paul Laurence Dunbar Books

Illustrated with photographs by Leigh Richmond Miner, Howdy Honey Howdy contains many previously published poems by Dunbar. One difference from previous covers is the photograph of a woman in a doorway, hand extended, as if welcoming the reader and inviting one to enter.

Li'l' Gal, Paul Laurence Dunbar

Paul Laurence Dunbar Books

Illustrated with photographs and decorations, the majority of poems in this book had been previously published. However, Dunbar did include four new poems: "The Plantation Child's Lullaby," "Blue," "Charity," and "Curiosity." The title poem, "Li'L' Gal," was later recorded as a vocal performance by internationally known concert singer, Paul Robeson.

Lyrics Of Love And Laughter, Paul Laurence Dunbar

Paul Laurence Dunbar Books

Lyrics of Love and Laughter was crafted following another severe round of pneumonia. With this work, however, Dunbar secured his reputation as the premier African-American poet in the United States at the time. Like earlier volumes, this book contained poems in both dialect and standard English, reflecting its mix of both sentimental and realistic depictions of African-American life. The book included eleven poems not previously collected within a book.

When Malindy Sings, Paul Laurence Dunbar

Paul Laurence Dunbar Books

Lyrics Of The Hearthside, Paul Laurence Dunbar

Paul Laurence Dunbar Books

Several of the poems in Lyrics of the Hearthside had appeared previously in magazines such as The Ladies' Home Journal, The Century Magazine, and Cosmopolitan Magazine. The book also contains one of Dunbar's most famous poems, "Sympathy," which later inspired the title to Maya Angelou's autobiography, I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings. Many of the covers of Dunbar's published works reflect the tone of the works inside. Here, for example, the cover design incorporates cotton, connecting with Dunbar's descriptions of plantation agriculture and life.

Lyrics Of Lowly Life, Paul Laurence Dunbar

Paul Laurence Dunbar Books

Lyrics of Lowly Life contains primarily works from Dunbar's two previous books, Oak and Ivy and Majors and Minors. The book was supported financially by Henry A. Tobey and Charles A. Thatcher, two gentlemen from Toledo, Ohio, who had also assisted with the funding of Majors and Minors. The book also contained an important introduction, written by William Dean Howells. The success of this book prompted Dunbar to travel on a six-month reading tour of England.

Majors And Minors, Paul Laurence Dunbar

Paul Laurence Dunbar Books

Majors and Minors reflects the dual styles of Dunbar's poetry. The "major" poems were works written in standard English, while the "minor" poems were his dialect poems. However, it was the "minors" section which caught the attention of reviewer William Dean Howells, editor of Harper's Weekly. Howells' review of the book singled out and praised Dunbar's use of dialect, bringing national attention to those works to the detriment of his poetry in standard verse.
