O knihe
The South has a rich cultural legacy and that of Louisiana is especially strong and diverse. Despite its similarities with the rest of the South, Louisiana has a distinct cultural identity rooted in the colonial impulses of France and Spain, the evolution of gender roles, the importance of religion, and the dramatic shift in racial politics after the 1803 Louisiana Purchase. This book explores the influences at work on Louisiana writers and those writing about Louisiana from the end of the Civil War through World War II. Included are chapters on such writers as Lafcadio Hearn, Kate Chopin, Tennessee Williams, and William Faulkner. These are grouped in sections devoted to three of the broadest influences on writers of the era: women, work, and culture during Reconstruction; the impact of Modernism; and issues of race and class.
