Zora Neale Hurston constructs her novel Their EyesWere Watching God with third person point of view; however, the novel appears in a framed structure while Janie Crawford, the protagonist, tells Pheoby Watson, her friend, her story. Although Janie tells Pheoby her story, she is not the narrator, but rather someone abstracted from her who emerges as an omniscient speaker. The narrator appears as omniscient, due to the fact that she gives an insight into the character's ideas, emotions, and motives. For example, the narrator comments, "It was a weapon against her strength and if it turned out of no significance, still it was a hope that she might fall to their level some day," (Hurston 2.) Through this statement, the narrator gives the audience an insight about Janie's feelings. By constructing the novel this way, Zora Neale Hurston achieves leading the audience to develop their own perspective about the characters' personalities and motives. The novel consists of dialogue as well, which appears as Southern Black dialect. Overall, Zora Neale Hurston's use of third person omniscient point of view and Southern Black dialect successfully develops a realistic atmosphere through the character's conversations.
In 1925, Zora Neale Hurston became one of the leaders of the Harlem Renaissance. Her first production was the short- lived literary magazine "Fire", along with Langston Hughes and Wallace Thurman. Many readers objected to the representation of African-American dialect in her novels. Some critics felt that her decision to render language in this way caricatured black culture. Now... she is being praised for her ability to capture the actual spoken idiom of the day. The work she is most famous for... There Eyes Were Watching God, was written in 1937. She spent the last decade of her life as a freelance writer for magazines and news papers. She died of a stroke and was buried in and unmarked grave.
Neale McDevitt has written: 'One day even Trevi will crumble'

You put a Zorak and a Ditto in the day care.
There are many themes in "Their Eyes Were Watching God" but specifically Zora Neale Hurston points to the human condition and struggle and triumph to overcome. I think it also deals with family and the extent in which familial values can transform overtime depending on the nature of the relationship.
According to what I have read in my college Black Lit class and other sources, it would have been Langston Hughes, Zola Neale Hurston, and W.E. DuBois. It started approximately 1919 until the 1930s. It affected all aspects of the "Negro culture". The biggest being literature, art, education, business and every day life.
