A New Home, Who'll Follow? Or, Glimpses of Western Life
Author: Caroline Matilda Kirkland
Publisher: Rutgers University Press
ISBN: 9780813515427
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
"A New Home is a vivid contribution to a new king of narrative developed during the antebellum period, ethnographic fiction. Kirkland highlights the importance and the drama of local practices and everyday life in Montacute. She traces the way two groups of settlers slowly adjust to each other--the old hands and the newcomers from the East. Dramatizing differences of class and culture, she also shows how the groups finally form a genuine community and a new diverse culture. Kirkland also gives ethnographic fiction an original twist: she satirizes the provincialism and the rigidity of both groups of settlers."--Publisher's description from paperback back cover.

In the Work of Their Hands is Their Prayer
Author: Joel Daehnke
Publisher: Ohio University Press
ISBN: 0821415026
Category : American literature
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
"Enlisting works by Mark Twain and Willa Cather, as well as noncanonical sources, such as private journals, Daehnke examines the manner in which the imagery of the human figure at work and play in the frontier landscape participated in the nationalist, "civilizing" project of westward expansion. While acknowledging the growing secularization of American life, Daehnke surveys the continuing claims of the Christian redemptive scheme as a powerful symbolic domain for these writers' reflections on social progress and the potential for human perfectibility in the landscapes of the West."--Jacket.
