Final answer:

The provided text does not explicitly identify the two militant literary writers associated with the transition to a more militant literature after World War II within the context of Incipient Anti-Colonialism. Various authors are discussed, such as the Lost Generation and Southern Renaissance writers, but none explicitly fit the description. Further details on the timeframe and specific literary movements are needed to provide an accurate answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question pertains to two militant literary writers who became prominent in the period after World War II and were identified with a shift towards a more militant literature. However, the provided sections do not specify any individual authors who unequivocally meet this description within the context of the "Incipient Anti-Colonialism" period mentioned. Instead, the authors discussed across different sections of the text—including the Lost Generation writers like F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway, as well as the Southern Renaissance figures such as Katherine Ann Porter and Flannery O'Connor—are primarily concerned with the social and political changes in the United States following World War I and leading into the post-World War II era, without specifically aligning themselves with 'militant' anti-colonial literature.

Perhaps, when referring to militant literature, the question could be referring to writers like Ralph Ellison and James Baldwin, who addressed racial segregation and the civil rights movement in their work, though they are more frequently associated with civil rights than militant anti-colonialism. The mention of the Black Power Movement aligns with a more militant stance on social change, as evidenced by figures such as Malcolm X. Nevertheless, without specific mentions in the provided sections and a lack of context connecting them to anti-colonial militancy, it is not possible to confidently identify the two writers in question.

Therefore, based on the available information, a precise answer to the student's question cannot be provided, and further clarification of the timeframe and geographical context of the query may be needed to accurately identify the writers in question and their respective countries.
