| Sommario/riassunto: | Today, debates about globalisation raise both hopes and fears. But what about during William Faulkner's time? Was Faulkner aware of worldwide cultural, historical, and economic developments? Just how interested was he in the global scheme of things? The contributors to this book suggest that a global context is helpful for recognising the broader international meanings of Faulkner's celebrated regional landscape. |
