Beschreibung:
William R. Handley is an associate professor of English at the University of Southern California. He is the author of Marriage, Violence, and Nation in the American Literary West. Nathaniel Lewis is an associate professor of English at Saint Michael's College and the author of Unsettling the Literary West: Authenticity and Authorship (Nebraska 2003).
What explains the longstanding but elusive assumption that out West lies an authentic origin and destination for American culture? In fifteen essays of diverse interest, from Native American cultural authority to authentic reproductions in frontier theme parks, True West opens an illuminating new chapter in western studies.
