Book Description:
This book suggests an interpretation of the characteristic qualities of Scottish and American literatures. Considering the self-consciously different stance which sets them apart from English literature, the author develops the constituents of the 'puritan-provincial vision': a particular way of looking at life and man's relationship to what lies beyond himself.
Review:
"Manning's thoughtful critique shows how contradictory attitudes can arise out of, and in reaction to, a common adherence to absolutes. Her Scottish/American pairings, Home/Edwards, Smith and Jefferson, and so on--are strategically brilliant." London Review of Books
"Manning succeeds admirably in conducting an argument that is both ambitious and bright with surprise." Terence Martin, American Literature
"Manning succeeds admirably in conducting an argument that is both ambitious and bright with surprise." Terence Martin, American Literature
