  • Sport and the Spirit of Play in American Fiction

    Russel B Nye, Christian K MessengerARTICLEAmerican Literature1982

    In this comprehensive and insightful study, Christian K.

This is the first inclusive critical study of sport in American fiction with chapters on individual authors such as Hawthorne, Lardner, Fitzgerald, Hemingway, and Faulkner, as…

  • Eight Ways of Looking at an Amusement Park

    Open AccessRussel B NyeARTICLEThe Journal of Popular Culture1981Citada por: 5

    The amusement park is solidly part of the national experience as a pleasure of the multitudes, and has been many things to many people— escape, fantasy, otherworldliness, illusion, drama, total theater, spectacle; a safety zone of enjoyment, absurdity and release from the habits, norms and rules of everyday life. The dangerous, the absurd, the erotic, the hilarious and the weird invite the participant into a world of role‐playing and the glories …

  • The American Idea

    Russel B Nye, Everett CarterARTICLEAmerican Literature1977

    The American idea, a blend of the Idea of Progress and a belief in the essential goodness of man, has determined the form of much of our significant literature.

  • The Unwritten War

    Russel B Nye, Daniel Aaron et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Southern History1974

    Here, Daniel Aaron examines the literary output of American writers - major and minor - who treated the Civil War in their works. The author seeks to understand why this devastating and defining military conflict has failed to produce more literature of a notably high and lasting order, why there is still no masterpiece of Civil War fiction. In his portraits and analyses of 19th- and some 20th-century writers, Aaron distinguishes between those wh…

  • A Certain Morbidness

    Russel B Nye, Edward StoneARTICLEAmerican Literature1971

    Edward Stone here analyzes works of six major American authors and reveals this irrational fear, the dread of finding Nothing beyond the mysterious and beguiling phenomena of existence that underlies their literature. He amply demonstrates that the morbid strain in the writings of Herman Melville, Henry James, Stephen Crane, Robert Frost, William Faulkner, and J. D. Salinger has made their works comparable
