Offering a comprehensive view of the South's literary landscape, past and present, this volume of The New Encyclopedia of Southern Culture celebrates the region's ever-flourishing literary culture and recognizes the ongoing evolution of the southern literary canon. As new writers draw upon and reshape previous traditions, southern literature has broadened and deepened its connections not just to the American literary mainstream but also to world literatures--a development thoughtfully explored in the essays here. Greatly expanding the content of the literature section in the original Encyclopedia, this volume includes 31 thematic essays addressing major genres of literature; theoretical categories, such as regionalism, the southern gothic, and agrarianism; and themes in southern writing, such as food, religion, and sexuality. Most striking is the fivefold increase in the number of biographical entries, which introduce southern novelists, playwrights, poets, and critics. Special attention is given to contemporary writers and other individuals who have not been widely covered in previous scholarship.

Colm Tóibíd, the award-winning article writer of These Leaderand Brooklyn, transforms this focus for the elaborate romantic relationships relating to daddies in addition to sons—especially any stresses regarding the fictional leaders Oscar Wilde, Brandon Joyce, W.B. Yeats, as well as most of the fathers. Wilde loathed her my dad, nevertheless referred to that they are a great deal alike. Joyce's gregarious pops driven his daughter right from Ireland on account of their volatile temper and drinking. While Yeats's grandfather, a fabulous puma, was basically apparently an enjoyable conversationalist in whose cackle is considerably more polished as opposed to the work your puppy produced. Those well-known gentlemen and then the fathers just who made it easier for pattern them all occur surviving for Tóibín's retelling, same as Dublin's bright colored inhabitants.

The Great Code By:Northrop Frye,Alvin A. Lee Published on 2006-01-01 by University of Toronto Press ( DOWNLOAD NOW ) Considered by many to be Northrop Frye's magnum opus, The Great Code (1982) reflects a lifetime of thinking about the patterns and meanings of the Bible. In this new edition of The Great Code, Alvin A. Lee presents a corrected and fully annotated version of Frye's text, as well as a comprehensive introduction to help contextualize this important work and guide readers through its allusive passages. Lee's introduction provides a synoptic account of the role of the Bible in Frye's intellectual and spiritual odyssey, as well as a description of how The Great Code as a book came into existence, and an introductory critique of the shape and meaning of the book's argument. The Great Code is culturally allusive to a high degree. It takes much of its inspiration from the Bible itself, including a profusion of biblical passages, but also from the author's

The Economy of Literature By:Marc Shell Published on 1993-09-01 by JHU Press ( DOWNLOAD NOW ) Why did coinage, tyranny, and philosophy develop in the same time and place? Marc Shell explores how both money and language give |worth| by providing a medium of exchange, how the development of money led to a revolution in philosophical thought and language, and how words transform mere commodities into symbols at once aesthetic and practical. Offering carefully documented interpretations of texts from Heraclitus, Herodotus, Sophocles, Plato, Aristotle, Rousseau, and Ruskin, Shell demonstrates the kinship between literary and economic theory and production, introduces new methods of analyzing texts, and shows how literary and philosophical fictions can help us understand the world in which we live.
