réf. B9780807857526Paperback / softback. New. The career of Constance Rourke 1885-1941 is one of the richest examples of the American writer's search for a ""usable past."" In this first full-length study of Rourke Joan Shelley Rubin establishes the context for Rourke's defense of American culture -- the controversies that engaged her the books that influenced her thinking the premises that lay beneath her vocabulary. With the aid of Rourke's unpublished papers the author explores her responses to issues that were compelling for her generation of intellectuals: the critique of America as materialistic and provincial; the demand for native traditions in the arts; the modern understanding of the nature of culture and myth; and the question of a critic's role in a democracy. Rourke's writings demonstrate that America did not suffer as Van Wyck Brooks and others had maintained from a damaging split between ""high-brow"" and ""low-brow"" but was rather a rich unified culture in which the arts could thrive. Her classic American Humor 1931 and her biographies of Lotta Crabtree Davy Crockett Audubon and Charles Sheeler celebrate the American as mythmaker. To foster what she called the ""possession"" of the national heritage she used an evocative prose style accessible to a wide audience and depicted the frontier in more abstract terms than did other contempoaray scholars. Her commitment to social reform acquired in her youth and strengthened at Vassar in the Progressive era informed her sense of the function of criticism and guided her political activites in the 1930s. Drawing together Rourke's varied discussions of popular heroes comic lore literature and art Rubin illuminates the delicate balances and sometimes contradictory arguments underlying Rourke's description of America's cultural patterns. She also analyzes the way Rourke's encounters with the ideas of Van Wyck Brooks Ruth Benedict Jane Harrison Bernard DeVoto and Lewis Mumford shaped her view of America's achievements and possibilities. Rourke emerges not simply as a follower of Brooks or as a colleague of De Voto nor even as an antiquarian or folklorist. Rather she assumes her own unique and proper place -- as a pioneer who more than anyone else of her day boldly and eloquently showed Americans that they had the resources necessary for the future of both art and society. By placing Constance Rourke within the framework of a debate about the nature of American culture the author makes a notable contribution to American intellectual history.
