Synopsis "The Several Worlds of Pearl s. Buck: Essays Presented at a Centennial Symposium, Randolph-Macon Woman's College, 26-28 March 1992 (Contributions in Women's Studies)"
Pearl Buck made important contributions as a humanitarian and an advocate of racial equality and women's rights. She did much to change American attitudes toward persons with mental retardation and toward mixed-race children. She was a major force in shaping American views of Asia, particularly China, during the 1930s and 1940s. Until 1993, she was first American woman to win both the Pulitzer Prize and the Nobel Prize for Literature. The 13 essays in this book, the first such collection on Buck to be published in the United States, view her from historical, humanitarian, and literary perspectives.
