Product Description Contributions by Robert Hamblin, Panthea Reid Broughton, James B. Carothers, Louis Daniel Brodsky, Ellen Douglas, Charles Nilon, and Franois PitavyReflecting developments in Faulkner criticism, these papers delivered at the 1980 Faulkner and Yoknapatawpha Conference point the way to a new and relatively unexplored avenue of researchthe study of relationships among Faulkners seemingly distinct novels. No longer satisfied to look only at the individual work, critics are instead surveying the whole field of Faulkners fiction. Many of the lectures collected in this volume direct attention to the full scope and range of Faulkners fictional world, searching for, and finding, unity, harmony, and interrelationships. Some of the essays, like Ellen Douglass Faulkner in Time and James Carotherss The Road to The Reivers, examine all of Faulkners novels, seeking to uncover an overall design and meaning. Others trace the appearances, in work after work, of one theme or figure. Among the subjects considered in this way are Faulkners women, his black characters, his heroes, his aristocrats, and his attitude toward death. Taken together, these essays implicitly acknowledge the appropriateness of metaphor of a cosmos for Faulkners fictional creation. To be fully and accurately understood, each single part of Faulkners vast system of fictional meanings, like the separate worlds in a cosmos, must be assessed in the context of the whole. From the Inside Flap A scrutiny of the many trails Faulkner developed between distinct novels
