Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 3rd Edition. 3rd ed. [rev. and enl.]. ; viii, 890 pages ; 25 cm ; LCCN: 56-6557 ; LC: PS21; Dewey: 810.3 ; OCLC: 269192 ; textured red brick cloth, in edge-nicked dustjacket ; "Designed to serve as a useful companion for students and general readers of American literature, this volume provides ready references, not only to materials concerning the written word in America, but also to many allied subjects. It attempts to deal briefly with the American mind and the American scene, as these are reflected in and influenced by American literature. In alphabetic arrangement, the work includes, first of all, short biographies and bibliographies of American authors, with information regarding their style and subject matter; nearly nine hundred summaries and descriptions of important American novels, stories, essays, poems, and plays; definitions and historical outlines of literary schools and movements; and information on literary societies, magazines, anthologies, co-operative publications, literary awards, book collectors, printers, and other matters relating to writing in America. Literary terms that are sufficiently defined in the dictionaries are not discussed, except where they have a distinctive history in the United States. Thus there are no entires on the conventional terms of prosody, but free verse, polyphonic prose, and stream-of-consciousness fiction are briefly treated, and there are lengthy articles on such subjects as the tall tale, the ballad, local color, and romanticism.includes far more, however, than literature considered as belles-lettres. Much of the writing that is discussed in these pages is undistinguished by beauty of style, but is all important for a comprehensive review of expression in America.This view has led to the inclusion of the social, economic, aesthetic, scientific, military, political and religious forces and events that have affected the course of history and hence the thought in the lands now forming the United States from the time of their discovery to 1941." ; prospectus laid in ; "For more than half a century, James D. Hart's The Oxford Companion to American Literature has been an unparalleled guide to America's literary culture, providing one of the finest resources to this country's rich history of great writers" ; FINE/G. Book.
