ref. B9780807156346Paperback / softback. New. For generations southern novelists and critics have grappled with a concept that is widely seen as a trademark of their literature: a strong attachment to geography or a ""sense of place."" In the 1930s the Agrarians accorded special meaning to rural life particularly the farm in their definitions of southern identity. For them the South seemed an organic and rooted region in contrast to the North where real estate development and urban sprawl evoked a faceless raw capitalism. By the end of the twentieth century however economic and social forces had converged to create a modernized South. How have writers responded to this phenomenon Is there still a sense of place in the South or perhaps a distinctly postsouthern sense of place Martyn Bone innovatively draws upon postmodern thinking to consider the various perspectives that southern writers have brought to the concept of ""place"" and to look at its fate in a national and global context. He begins with a revisionist assessment of the Agrarians who failed in their attempts to turn their proprietary ideal of the small farm into actual policy but whose broader rural aesthetic lived on in the work of neo-Agrarian writers including William Faulkner and Eudora Welty. By the 1950s adherence to this aesthetic was causing southern writers and critics to lose sight of the social reality of a changing South. Bone turns to more recent works that do respond to the impact of capitalist spatial development on the South - and on the nation generally - including that self-declared ""international city"" Atlanta. Close readings of novels by Robert Penn Warren Walker Percy Richard Ford Anne Rivers Siddons Tom Wolfe and Toni Cade Bambara illuminate evolving ideas about capital land labor and class while introducing southern literary studies into wider debates around social cultural and literary geography. Bone concludes his remarkably rich book by considering works of Harry Crews and Barbara Kingsolver that suggest the southern sense of place may be not only post-Agrarian or postsouthern but also transnational. paperback

Homer T. Bone - U.S. Senator- / From the author at the request of John L. Lang - / Glat to meet you again - SIGNED Charles Erskine Scott Wood.' A New third 'Greatly augmented and revised edition of a book whose first edition 'was reviewed by Max Eastman in the Masses and by Emma Goldman in Mother Earth. The one said there was too much propaganda and too little poetry--the other that there was too much poetry and too little propaganda.' vi 145pp. 12mo Taupe paper over boards backed in black cloth spine stamped in gilt and front cover in brown lettering rough trimmed fore edge. Some light rubbing to top corners with some fraying and a bit of loss to spine head some trivial offsetting to the endpapers very clean and fresh otherwise with tight binding and crisp pages; white DJ with expected petina with moderate rubbing and a few short tears to the extremities and a very small enclosed tear to the front. Wood first came to literary notoriety for his poetic rendering of the surrender speech of Nez Perce Chief Joseph recordered in person while serving in the Oregon Indian Wars for the US Army. Writes Dee Brown 'Lieutenant Wood left the Army not long afterward to become a lawyer and an author of satirical poems and essays. His experiences with Chief Joseph and the Nez Perces influenced his later life; he became an ardent fighter for social justice and a defender of the dispossesed' Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. According to his publisher: 'Charles Erskine Scott Wood followed the tradition of his family and took up military life as a boy graduating from West Point Academy some fifty years ago. Still very young he served in the Indian campaigns of the Northwest fraternizing with the Indians learning of their wisdom and being accepted among them. Later Mr. Wood settled in Portland Oregon and there practised law becoming the most distinguished and picturesque attorney in the Northwest. He had two offices: one in which he met corporation clients; and another a secret chamber to which came poets and peasants artists hoboes dreamers cultists borrowers cranks fanatics and gentle souls sinners and saints and scientists. Some ten years ago he gave up law and turned wholly to poetry moving to California to live in the sunlight. A friend has described him as 'wise and mellow with many years-one who walks the vine-draped hills of Los Gatos with the gods looking down on tiny villages and checkered orchards and chuckling not unkindly as he listens to the discourses of puffing little men.' His profound knowledge of human nature is born of wandering up and down the face of the earth and watching the activities of his fellow men for over half a century and this poem the fruit of that wisdom has been called 'one of the finest bits of American poetry grounded in a radical social philosophy.'' From the Dust Jacket. Homer T. Bone was a Tacoma lawyer whose first political affiliation was with the Socialist Party before spending the 1920's in Washington state politics with the Farmer-Labor Party and finally successfully running for the US Senate as a Democrat in 1932 a set which he held until accepting a Judicial appointment by FDR to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
