Description

Explore the connection between literature and physical identity in Protest and the Body in Melville, Dos Passos, and Hurston. Published by Routledge, this scholarly work provides a deep analysis of the literary output of Herman Melville, John Dos Passos, and Zora Neale Hurston. Thomas McGlamery examines how these authors use their writing to address the political meanings of the body. This book looks at how these three writers negotiate complex identities. By examining biographical materials and various discourses on the body, the text explores themes of class, gender, race, sexuality, and age. It is an essential resource for students and academics interested in literary criticism and cultural theory. McGlamery provides a clear look at how literature serves as a way to work through the social and political realities tied to human existence.
