Zora Neale Hurston was born approximately on Jan. ... Hurston grew up in Florida. ... After college, when Hurston began working as an ethnologist, she combined fiction and her knowledge of culture. Hurstons best-known work was published in 1937: Their Eyes Were Watching God. This literary piece was exceptional and helped Hurston earn her credentials as a writer. Zora Neale Hurston’s strained relationships with other African American writers, the theme regarding the dreams of women and the theme of male dominance will be discussed.
First, after writing Their Eyes Were Watching God, Zora Neale Hurston experienced antagonism from other prominent black writers of her time. When the first copy of Hurston’s Their Eyes Were Watching God was published, it did not receive an encouraging response. Richard Wright, a famous novelist for the publication of Native Son (1940), severely criticized Hurston’s novel for being extraneous to troubles of the black community (Masterplots…1421).
