  • Wieland; or The Transformation, and Memoirs of Carwin, The Biloquist

    Charles Brockden Brown, Emory ElliottBOOKWieland, or the transformation2009

    James Baldwin's first novel, Go Tell It on the Mountain, has gained a wide readership and much critical acclaim since its publication in 1953. While most critics have seen it as focusing exclusively on the African American fundamentalist church and its effect on characters brought up within its tradition, these scholars posit that issues of homosexuality, the social construction of identity, anthropological conceptions of community, and the quest…

  • Toward a New Historicism Once More

    Emory ElliottARTICLERevue française d’études…1987
