American Fiction : The Intellectual Background, Paperback / softback Book

American Fiction : The Intellectual Background Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: The American Novel series

Paperback / softback

Description

Originally published in 1963. The ‘Americanness’ of the American novel is as readily apparent as it is elusive of definition.

It is the purpose of this study not to discover the reluctant formula, the comprehensive statement of national identity, but to examine the evidences of this identity in the work of some individual American writers.

This study explores the works of many prominent American authors including Edgar Allan Poe, Nathanial Hawthorne, and Mark Twain.
