Democracy''s Literature - Politics and Fiction in America

Informationen zum Autor Joseph Romance is independent scholar who taught political science and political theory for over 20 years at Drew University and Fort Hays State University. Klappentext American literature is profoundly, almost inescapably political. In this fascinating new anthology of original essays, ten leading scholars explore the ways in which American civic education has been informally advanced through literature. Delving into the works of authors ranging from Mark Twain to William Faulkner to Octavia Butler, these essays reflect on the close relationship between democracy and literature.
