Abstract |
520
|
|
$a"Each of the books fifteen essays will treat regionalists and their thinking in a biographical context. Organized into four parts (Midwest, Great Plains, Northern West and California), the book will focus on such regional writers as Sanora Babb, B. A. Botkin, Angie Debo, Mari Sandoz, D'Arcy McNickle, Carey McWilliams, J. Frank Dobie, and others. Regionalism often has a reactionary outlook based in mostalgia for a bygone time. By contrast, these writer-intellectuals have, as one reader puts it,"offered a powerful critique" of historical and contemporary inequalities and social shortcomings even as they express a "deep affection for the place."" ---Provided by the publisher |
