literature
The title I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings is an allusion to the poem "Sympathy" by Paul Laurence Dunbar. The last stanza reads: I know why the caged bird sings, ah me, / When his wing is bruised and his bosom sore,— / When he beats his bars and he would be free; / It is not a carol of joy or glee, / But a prayer that he sends from his heart's deep core, / But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings— / I know why the caged bird sings! Why do you think Angelou refers to this poem in the title of her autobiography?
