随着黑脸吟游诗人表演从美国革命开始发展到19世纪后期的顶峰，其狂热的舞蹈，粗俗的幽默和活泼的音乐提供的不仅仅是娱乐。事实上，这些模仿和恶搞塑造了社会对非裔美国人和女性的看法，并在国家认同、政策制定和其他娱乐形式，如杂耍、滑稽剧、讽刺剧，以及最终的电影、广播和电视上留下了自己的印记。这里汇集了罕见的原始材料——包括吟游诗人表演的第一手资料、吟游诗人指南、笑话、小品和乐谱——以及当代吟游诗人最好的学术研究。
As the blackface minstrel show evolved from its beginnings in the American Revolution to its peak during the late 1800s, its frenetic dances, low-brow humor, and lively music provided more than mere entertainment. Indeed, these imitations and parodies shaped society's perceptions of African Americans-and of women-as well as made their mark on national identity, policymaking decisions, and other entertainment forms such as vaudeville, burlesque, the revue, and, eventually, film, radio, and television. Gathered here are rare primary materials-including firsthand accounts of minstrel shows, minstrelsy guides, jokes, sketches, and sheet music-and the best of contemporary scholarship on minstrelsy.
