Description

Explore the complex relationship between technological advancement and American literary realism. During a period of rapid innovation, writers faced deep questions about how new tools changed the way humans communicate and express truth. This scholarly work from Routledge examines the tension between science and storytelling in the works of major literary figures. Rather than viewing technology and realism as simple partners, this book looks at the anxieties felt by authors regarding the intersection of ethics and language. By studying the written works of writers like Mark Twain, Stephen Crane, Charles W. Chesnutt, and Edith Wharton, readers gain a deeper understanding of how the dawn of the machine age impacted the very foundation of human expression and moral thought.
