Summary
Ralph Ellison's reputation as a major American writer has been secured in the past twenty-five years. This period has witnessed a remarkable resurgence in Ellison scholarship, stimulated partly by the availability of previously unpublished materials and the opening of The Ralph Ellison Papers in the Library of Congress. This chapter surveys major events and trends in Ellison studies since his death in 1994.
