Through extended readings of works by Henry James, William Dean Howells, Abraham Cahan and Edith Wharton, Barrish emphasises the differences between literary realist modes of intellectual and cultural authority and those associated with the rise of the social sciences. In doing so, he greatly refines our understanding of the complex relationship between realist writing and masculinity. Barrish further argues that understanding the dynamics of intellectual status in realist literature provides new analytic purchase on intellectual prestige in recent critical theory. Here he focuses on such figures as Lionel Trilling, Paul de Man, John Guillory and Judith Butler.Cambridge studies in American literature and culture ;126.American Literary Realism, Critical Theory, & Intellectual Prestige, 1880-1995American fiction20th centuryHistory and criticismRealism in literatureAmerican fiction19th centuryHistory and criticismAmerican fictionHistory and criticismTheory, etcUnited StatesIntellectual life20th centuryUnited StatesIntellectual life19th centuryAmerican fictionHistory and criticism.Realism in literature.American fictionHistory and criticism.American fictionHistory and criticismTheory, etc.813/.50912Barrish Phillip595298UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910777351903321American literary realism, critical theory, and intellectual prestige, 1880-1995993355UNINA
