From the American exceptionalism of James Fenimore Cooper to the apocalyptic post-Americanism of Cormac McCarthy, these newly commissioned essays from leading scholars and critics chronicle the major aesthetic innovations that have shaped the American novel over the past two centuries. The essays evaluate the work, life and legacy of influential American novelists including Melville, Twain, James, Wharton, Cather, Faulkner, Ellison, Pynchon and Morrison, while situating them within the context of their literary predecessors and successors. The volume also highlights less familiar, though equally significant writers such as Theodore Dreiser and Djuna Barnes, providing a balanced and wide-ranging survey of use to students, teachers and general readers of American literature. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 606 $aNovel·la nord-americana$2thub 606 $aEscriptors nord-americans$2thub 606 $aAmerican fiction$xHistory and criticism 606 $aNovelists, American 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 7$aNovel·la nord-americana 615 7$aEscriptors nord-americans 615 0$aAmerican fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aNovelists, American. 676 $a813.009 686 $aLIT004020$2bisacsh 702 $aParrish$b Timothy$f1964- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996204513903316 996 $aThe Cambridge companion to American novelists$92493613 997 $aUNISA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
