  • Descrição: The article explores the evolution of Richard Wright’s worldview and his creative manner during the period of his ideological shift from Communism to existentialism, prompted by his contacts with Jean-Paul Sartre and Albert Camus, their work and philosophical views. The author reveals the peculiar features of the genesis of existentialism in African-American literature, emerging from the “protest novel”; in this connection, R. Wright’s novel “Native Son” (1940) has been analysed as the work transitional from his social prose to the philosophical existential prose of 1940-1950s. Special attention has been given to the creative history of R. Wright’s novel “The Outsider” (1953) with a focus on its interconnections with “L’Ėtranger” by A. Camus.
