Willa Cather and the Politics of Criticism
ISBN: 9780803210462 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 127 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Expanding on her absorbing and controversial 1995 New Yorker article, Joan Acocella examines the politics of Willa Cather criticism: how Cather's work has been seized upon and often distorted by critics on both the left and the right. Acocella argues that the central element of Cather's works was not a political agenda but rather a tragic vision of life. This beautifully written book makes a significant contribution to Cather studies and, at the same time, points out the follies of political criticism in the study of all literature. A staff writer for the New Yorker, Joan Acocella is the...

Willa Cather and the Politics of Criticism
ISBN: 9780375712951 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this brilliant, impassioned and controversial book, New Yorker critic Joan Acocella argues that twentieth-century literary critics from the Left and Right have misused Willa Cather and her works for their own political ends, and, in doing so, have either ignored or obscured her true literary achievement. In an acute and often very funny critique of the critics, Acocella untangles Cather's reputation from decades of politically motivated misreadings, and proposes her own clear-headed view of Cather s genius. At once a graceful summary of Cather's life and work, and a refreshing plea...
