Buchbeschreibung Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. No literary history can be a final and once-and-for-all account, but the authors of this book have sought certain things: a reasonable inclusiveness, up-to-date reading of the authors' work discussed, an informed critical posture. Having considered the complexity of American literature in social, historical and ideological context, at the same time recognizing American literature has been a Western literature, related to the thought and art movements that have crossed Europe and America. One advantage of a collaborated book, with authors from two sides of the Atlantic is a breadth of perspective and mixture of critical attitudes. From a modernist/postmodernist perspective, this title addresses questions of literary and cultural nationalism. It reveals that since 17th century, American writing has reflected the political and historical climate and helped define America's cultural and social parameters. It argues that American literature has always been essentially modern. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Buchbeschreibung Softcover. Zustand: new. From Modernist/Postmodernist perspective, leading critics Richard Ruland (American) and Malcolm Bradbury (British) address questions of literary and cultural nationalism. They demonstrate that since the seventeenth century, American writing has reflected the political and historical climate of its time and helped define America's cultural and social parameters. Above all, they argue that American literature has always been essentially "modern," illustrating this with a broad range of texts: from Poe and Melville to Fitzgerald and Pound, to Wallace Stevens, Gwendolyn Brooks, and Thomas Pynchon.From Puritanism to Postmodernism pays homage to the luxuriance of American writing by tracing the creation of a national literature that retained its deep roots in European culture while striving to achieve cultural independence.
