| 520 | |a This book takes on the long habit among literary historians and critics of thinking about large segments of American literary production in terms of regionalism. The author argues that classifying broad swaths of American literature as regionalist or "local color" writing brings with it a set of assumptions, informed by longstanding habits of thought about American culture, that marginalize important literary works and deform our understanding of them. Moreover, these assumptions reinforce our ideas about the divisions between city and country, coast and center, cosmopolitan and provincial that lie behind not only our literature, but our politics. | ||
