The Vast and Terrible Drama - American Literary Naturalism in the Late Nineteenth Century

Informationen zum Autor Eric Carl Link is Hugh Shott Professor of English at North Georgia College & State University and coauthor of Neutral Ground: New Traditionalism and the American Romance Controversy. Zusammenfassung Offers a critical study of the context in which authors such as Oliver Wendell Holmes, Stephen Crane, Frank Norris, Theodore Dreiser, and Jack London created their most significant work. The book counters a century of criticism that has viewed literary naturalism too narrowly, as a subset of realism, bound by the conventions of realistic narration.
