Faulkner'S Country Matters: Folklore And Fable In Yoknapatawpha (Southern Literary Studies),New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Daniel Hoffmans bold new readings reveal unsuspected dimensions in Faulkners The Unvanquished, The Hamlet, and Go Down, Moses. He shows how these works, often regarded as disunified collections of short stories and novellas, are coherent and successful experiments in novelistic form.These last three novels of Faulkners great period are striated with folklore and structured with myths. They teem with folk motifs of comic exaggeration, deception, horsetrading, talltale humor. Hitherto, critics unversed in folklore have been able to treat these aspects only in generalities. Here, drawing on fieldwork from the Mississippi Writers Project in the 1930s, the author of Poe Poe Poe Poe Poe Poe Poe and the influential Form and Fable in America Fiction demonstrates in detail Faulkners ironical, subversive, and transformative appropriations of folklore plots, characters, comedy, language, and the style of oral taletelling, setting these in the full complexity of the works they animate.Hoffman, shows, too how in imagining his dynastic novels, Faulkner interprets myth as history, history as myth. He challenges recent deconstructive, postMarxist and structuralist readings of The Bear, and demonstrates the necessity on the readers part for an historical imagination to complement Faulkners own.Written with verve, Faulkners Country Matters enriches our reading of Faulkner by presenting his work in its necessary settings of southern history and culture. Faulkners modernism is restated as a continuance of the great American fiction tradition of Hawthorne, Melville, and Mark Twain.
