Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Theres western, and then theres Westernand where history becomes myth is an evocative question, one of several questions posed by Josh GarrettDavis in What Is a Western? Region, Genre, Imagination. Part cultural criticism, part history, and wholly entertaining, this series of essays on specific films, books, music, and other cultural texts brings a fresh perspective to longstudied topics. Under GarrettDaviss careful observation, cultural objects such as films and literature, art and artifacts, and icons and oddities occupy the terrain of where the West as region meets the Western genre.One crucial through line in the collection is the relationship of regional western works to genre Western works, and the ways those two categories cannot be cleanly distinguishedmost work about the West is tinted by the Western genre, and Westerns depend on the region for their status and power. GarrettDavis also seeks to answer the question What is a Western now? To do so, he brings the Western into dialogue with other frameworks of the imagined West such as Indigenous perspectives, the borderlands, and environmental thinking. The books mosaic of subject matter includes new perspectives on the classic musical film Oklahoma!, a consideration of Native activism at Standing Rock, and surprises like Peewees Big Adventure and Dr. Seusss The Lorax. The book is influenced by the borderlands theory of Gloria Anzalda and the work of the indie rock band Calexico, as well as the authors own discipline of western cultural history.Richly illustrated, primarily from the collection of the Autry Museum of the American West, Josh GarrettDaviss work is as visually interesting as it is enlightening, asking readers to consider the American West in new ways.
