Abstract: This research paper delves into the dynamic nature of African-American elegy, exploring its evolution across time and space. Rooted in Jahan Ramazani's concept of an "ever-mutating affective universe," the study emphasizes the interweaving of diverse traditions while maintaining the distinctive features of the African-American elegiac form. Focusing on identity, grief, and resistance, the paper traces the historical trajectory of these elegies, revealing their role in cultural mourning and political resistance during the abolitionist movement. Examining poets such as Phillis Wheatley and Paul Laurence Dunbar, the research highlights their nuanced negotiations of agency and identity within the African-American experience. The concept of memory emerges as pivotal, shaping elegies through access to familial or affiliative circles. The study concludes by positioning African-American elegies as a praxis of refusal, resistance, and a vital link between contemporary identity and historical roots. The paper underscores the intricate interplay of grief, identity, and agency within the African-American elegiac tradition, portraying it as a dynamic and meaningful form of expression in the face of historical challenges.
