W.E.B. Du Bois would continuously comment upon the American Reconstruction era throughout much of his long life, culminating in large part with his magnum opus on the post-war period entitled "Black Reconstruction in America," written in 1935. While prior scholars have certainly broached Du Bois' interests in the subject, this dissertation attempts to explain the phenomenon as a cornerstone of his intellectual thought. Du Bois not only wrote about the era from the perspective of a professional historian, sociologist, and anthropologist, but also from the mindset of a creative playwright, poet, novelist, and memorialist; all of which were interchangeable parts of his identity which he would navigate between on a daily basis. His resultant arrangement and dissemination of information on the Reconstruction era was prolific to say the least, as its significance can be discerned from the time of his earliest scholarly writings or within the pages of his first attempt at novel writing, to his commemorations of the time period in poetry, exhibition, and pageantry, and within the writing of his many historical tracts on African and African-American history. His reasons for doing so were multifaceted. He saw that the contemporary discourse on the era, i.e. the hegemony of the Dunning-School and the propagation of racist fiction from the pens of those like Thomas Dixon Jr. and Thomas Nelson Page had been decidedly abhorrent and thus in need of a strong rebuttal. But he would also place himself at the forefront of the dialogue, for others within it would essentially be forced to reply to his revolutionary suggestion that the African-American Slaves and Freedmen of the Civil War and Post Civil-War era were indeed active agents in bringing about their own freedom.
