Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Toward the end of her life, Sarah Orne Jewett (1849-1909) made a surprising disclosure. Instead of the critically lauded The Country of the Pointed Firs, Jewett declared her 'best story' to be A Marsh Island (1885), a little-known novel. Why One reason is that it demonstrates Jewett's range. Known primarily for her vignettes, Jewett accomplished in these pages a truly great novel. Undoubtedly, another reason lies in the novel's themes of queer kinship and same-sex domesticity, as enjoyed by the flamboyant protagonist Dick Dale. Written a few years into Jewett's decades-long companionship with Annie Fields, A Marsh Island echoes Jewett's determination to split time between her family home in Maine and Fields's place on Charles Street in Boston. The novel follows the adventures of Dale, a Manhattanite landscape painter in the Great Marsh of northeastern Massachusetts and envisions the latter region's saltmarsh as a figure for dynamic selfhood: the ever-shifting boundaries between land and sea a model for valuing both individuality and a porous openness to the gifts of others. Jewett's works played a major role in popularizing the genre of American regionalism and have garnered praise, both in her time and ours, for her skill in rendering the local landscapes and fishing villages along or near the coasts of New England. Just as Jewett brought attention to the unique beauty and value of the Great marsh region, editor Don James McLaughlin reveals a convergence of regionalism and sexuality in Jewett's work in his introduction. A Marsh Island reminds us that queer kinship has a long tradition of being extended to incorporate queer ecological belonging, and that the meaning of 'companionship' itself is enriched when we acknowledge its indebtedness to environment.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Phobia and American Literature, 1705-1937: A Therapeutic History tells a neglected, two-century history of phobia's gradual emergence as a variable suffix in medicine, politics, and literature, ready to be appended to an array of objects, situations, and ideas. Across psychology's early American and nineteenth-century varieties, phobia prompted a remarkable genealogy of thought in the Americas. Literary figures adapted conversations and debates happening among physicians to popular forms, such as sermons, essays, satire, novels, short stories, and creative ventures in the social sciences. Through this fusion of medical and literary activity, concentrated in the cities of Boston, Philadelphia, and New York, phobia's analysis became a foundational locus for the development of a therapeutic imaginary at the heart of American liberalism. More precisely, phobia's analysis became central to a discourse that regarded public mental health as an indispensable factor in the recognition of inalienable rights and civil liberties. By recovering the discursive contingencies that enabled this tradition, McLaughlin illuminates new connections between towering thinkers, among them Cotton Mather, John Adams, Benjamin Rush, Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., William James, and Zora Neale Hurston. Following these lines of influence and debate, emphasis is placed on the incisive care such figures brought to bear on phobia's etymological development as a locus of psychological inquiry.…
