  • A Political Companion to Ralph Waldo Emerson

    Edición de Alan M. Levine, Daniel S. Malachuk ...
    Series series Political Companions to Great American Authors
    From before the Civil War until his death in 1882, Ralph Waldo Emerson was renowned—and renounced—as one of the United States' most prominent abolitionists and as a leading visionary of the nation's liberal democratic future. Following his death, however, both Emerson's political activism and his political thought faded from public memory, replaced by the myth of the genteel man of letters and the ... Leer más

  • T.S. Eliot Materialized: Literal Meaning and Embodied Truth

    de G. Atkins ...
    Series series Literature, Cultural and Media Studies (R0)
    By reading T.S. Eliot literally and laterally, and attending to his intra-textuality, G. Douglas Atkins challenges the familiar notion of Eliot as bent on escaping this world for the spiritual.

  • Making Something Happen

    American Political Poetry between the World Wars

    de Michael Thurston ...
    Series series Cultural Studies of the United States
    “Poetry makes nothing happen,” wrote W. H. Auden in 1939, expressing a belief that came to dominate American literary institutions in the late 1940s — the idea that good poetry cannot, and should not, be politically engaged. By contrast, Michael Thurston here looks back to the 1920s and 1930s to a generation of poets who wrote with the precise hope and the deep conviction that they would move ... Leer más

  • Enemies of All Humankind

    Fictions of Legitimate Violence

    de Sonja Schillings ...
    Hostis humani generis, meaning “enemy of humankind,” is the legal basis by which Western societies have defined such criminals as pirates, torturers, or terrorists as beyond the pale of civilization. Sonja Schillings argues that the legal fiction designating certain persons or classes of persons as enemies of all humankind does more than characterize them as inherently hostile: it supplies a ...

  • Telling in Henry James

    The Web of Experience and the Forms of Reality

    de Professor Lynda Zwinger ...
    Telling in Henry James argues that James's contribution to narrative and narrative theories is a lifelong exploration of how to "tell," but not, as Douglas has it in "The Turn of the Screw" in any "literal, vulgar way." James's fiction offers multiple, and often contradictory, reading (in)directions. Zwinger's overarching contention is that the telling detail is that which cannot be accounted for ... Leer más

  • American Literature from the 1850s to 1945

    de Adam Augustyn ...
    Series series The Britannica Guide to World Literature
    Deviating from the romanticism of earlier works, American literature that emerged after the mid-19th century adopted a distinct realism and an often critical view of American society. With penetrating analyses, writers such as Henry Adams and Upton Sinclair exposed fundamental flaws in government and industry, while Mark Twain and H.L. Mencken incisively satirized social ills such as prejudice and ... Leer más
