American Literature Root and Flower, Volume II: Significant Poets, Novelists, and Dramatists 1775-1955 - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A companion to Rubinstein's celebrated study of
English literature, American Literature Root and Flower examines the
lives and works of over fifty important American novelists, poets, and
dramatists. This two-volume study is one of remarkable scope, ranging
from Hawthorne to the Harlem Renaissance, from Poe to Pynchon. It
illuminates the relationship between the producers of American
literature and their ever-changing social and political contexts, while
emphasizing the current of critique and resistance that runs through the
entire tradition. Monthly Review Press is proud to present the
first-ever U.S. printing of this valuable and enlightening work.
