Synopsis
An authoritative guide to American literature, this Companion examines the experimental forms, socio-cultural changes, literary movements, and major authors of the early 20th century. This Companion provides authoritative and wide-ranging guidance on early twentieth-century American fiction. Considers commonly studied authors such as Faulkner, Fitzgerald, and Hemingway, alongside key texts of the period by Richard Wright, Charles Chesnutt, Zora Neale Hurston, and Anzia Yezierska Examines how the works of these diverse writers have been interpreted in their own day and how current readings have expanded our understanding of their cultural and literary significance Covers a broad range of topics, including the First and Second World Wars, literary language differences, author celebrity, the urban landscape, modernism, the Jazz Age, the Great Depression, regionalism, and African-American fiction Gives students the contextual information necessary for formulating their own critiques of classic American fiction, An authoritative guide to American literature, this Companion examines the experimental forms, socio-cultural changes, literary movements, and major authors of the early 20th century. This Companion provides authoritative and wide-ranging guidance on early twentieth-century American fiction., This Concise Companion offers an authoritative overview of American fiction from 1900-1950, focusing on the literature that developed out of the social, cultural, and political changes which occurred in the first part of the twentieth century. With careful reference to key authors and their works, newly commissioned chapters examine the period's formative events, such as the Depression and the two world wars, and their representation in literature. In addition, essays also analyze the multiple and paradoxical self-descriptions that have been taken to define modernism, such as the "rise of proletarian literature" and the "high modernist" novel. Looking at issues of race, language, cosmopolitanism, book production, and gender, this volume introduces the contextual information and strategic knowledge that students can use to formulate their own readings of classic American fiction. Authors such as William Faulkner, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Ernest Hemingway, who have defined our understanding of modernism for so long, are reread in relation to key texts of the period by Richard Wright, Charles Chesnutt, Zora Neale Hurston, and Anzia Yezierska. This Concise Companion examines the original context of these authors' works and looks at its current reception to uncover how twentieth-century literature is being reinterpreted in the new millennium.

- b***9 (84)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufAnother fantastic transaction. Seller was very responsive to a question I had about the item, and shipped it straight away, same day as my order. As before, the program was very well-packaged in a plastic sleeve within a padded envelope enforced with cardboard. Good doing business.
- o***e (249)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufMark! Much thanks for my 1st Edition of Scott Fitzgerald's "All The Sad Young Me." As advertised, a very good copy mailed to me at warp speed and exceptionally well packed. We had a minor glitch, but you went above and beyond to rectify it and I could not be more please. Most professional of you and could not have asked for more. Looking forward to doing business again and only wish there were more book merchants out there as kind as you! Cheers and regards to you and yours. AAAAAAA++++++All the Sad Young Men F. Scott Fitzgerald 1st Ed 1st Print 1st State HC (Nr. 186696082129)
- h***- (43)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe book arrived faster than expected and the condition was as described (brand new). The book was packaged securely and with care. The volumes of the Minutes of the Vienna Psychoanalytic society are relatively rare and generally cost more for a used volume than what this seller was charging brand new, so I feel it was excellent value for the money. Overall I am very happy with this purchase and would definitely do business with this seller again.
