Frontiers and Border-Crossing: Incest, History, and Cinematic Structure in John Sayles's Lone Star
John Sayles's Lone Star (1996) Lone Star. Dir. John Sayles. Sony Classics, 1996. DVD. [Google Scholar] takes the occasion of Hispanic and Anglo cultural differences to concentrate thematically on an array of epistemological borders: between history and myth, parent and child, and genders, as well as racial and cultural matrixes. And the cinematic structure of the film itself compounds these efforts through a fragmented presentation that engages v…

The time had come for Venters and Bess to leave their retreat. They were at great pains to choose the few things they would be able to carry with them on the journey out of Utah. ‘Bern, whatever kind of a pack’s this, anyhow?’ questioned...
Solitude and Storm
In his hidden valley Venters awakened from sleep, and his ears rang with innumerable melodies from full-throated mocking-birds, and his eyes opened wide upon the glorious golden shaft of sunlight shining through the great stone bridge. The circle of cliffs surrounding Surprise Valley lay shrouded...

Whose West Is It Anyway? or, What's Myth Got to Do With It? The Role of “America” in the Creation of the Myth of the West
Little more than a year ago, was sitting in a darkened cineplex on a Saturday afternoon with four small boys (two of them mine) munching popcorn and drinking cherry slushes, waiting to see Shrek for the third time. Suddenly, on the screen appeared a trailer for an animated film due out last summer--a Dreamworks production called Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, directed by Kelly Asbury and Lorna Cook, with a screenplay by John Fusco, who has bee…

The Photograph and the American Indian
From forbidden snapshots of sacred ceremonies to formal portraits of Native Americans in Victorian dress, photography offers a fascinating record of the complex interplay of attitudes toward the indigenous peoples of the United States. This text examines photographs of Indians by both Native and Anglo Americans, from 1840 to the present, and offers an array of images reproduced with exacting respect for the physical qualities of the photograph as…

"But This Was History": Henry Adams' "Education" in London Diplomacy
PERHAPS the most elusive persona adopted by an American writer is the carefully posed manikin in The Education of Henry Adams. His experience traces a deceptively simple conceptual pattern: a tyro, seeking education, order, and significance, everywhere confronts failure in a world rushing toward disintegration. Our fascination with this figure extends naturally to its model. Artists often use personal experience fictionally, but we are struck in …
