    Southern Literatures and Environmental Lost Cause-ism

    par Jay Watson ...
    Collections Livre 62 - Mercer University Lamar Memorial Lectures

    Genesis of the Modern POW Experience

  • The Weird South

    Ecologies of Unknowing in Postplantation Literature

Though these images stand as polar opposites, each casts the South as an exceptional region that stood separate from American norms. Reassessing the 1930s South brings ... En savoir plus
