Examining the constituting mechanism of the American wilderness myth in Modern American literature, this book probes the various purposes for which 'wilderness' is constructed. Considering the work of Hemingway, Faulkner and Cather, it states that the idea of wilderness is not something that deserves to be wasted in the chasm of deconstruction.
First published in 2006. Examining the constituting mechanism of the American wilderness myth in Modern American literature, Patricia Ross probes the various purposes for which ''wilderness'' is constructed. Considering the work of Hemingway, Faulkner, and Cather, she states that the idea of wilderness is just that, an idea, and not a real entity or something that deserves to be wasted in the chasm of deconstruction. Discovering how literature can help us to understand how we can exert causative control of the myths we create about ourselves, this book is an important contribution to the field.
