Description

Explore how Cormac McCarthy and Wallace Stegner transform the American West into a contested cultural space where frontier mythology collides with environmental fragility and gender politics. This Routledge scholarly work examines the spiritual, narrative, symbolic, imaginative and ideological dimensions of the western landscape as both men portrayed it. The volume traces how the frontier has been constructed as a gendered space - alternately the virgin land subject to masculine conquest and a masculine domain where the feminine holds no place - whilst interrogating the enduring power of these myths in shaping American identity and environmental thought. Essential reading for literary scholars and students of American literature seeking to understand how McCarthy and Stegner challenged and reinforced landscape mythology through their fiction.

Key Features

Part of Routledge Transnational Perspectives on American Literature series, volume 12, providing academic context within contemporary literary criticism.

Focuses on how Cormac McCarthy and Wallace Stegner represent the western landscape as both spiritual and ideological terrain in their major works.

Analyses the gendered dimensions of frontier mythology, examining the virgin land trope and masculine dominion in American western narratives.

Examines the intersection of environmental reality with symbolic landscape representation in McCarthy and Stegner's fiction.

Scholarly literary theory text suitable for university courses in American literature, environmental humanities and critical studies.
