To Become the Self One Is: A Critical Companion to Drude Krog Janson's A Saloonkeepers Daughter
Seller: Joseph Burridge Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: New. 210 pages. After it was originally published in Norwegian in Minneapolis in 1887, A Saloonkeeper's Daughter receded into oblivion to reside there for more than a century. In 2002 it was translated by Gerhard Thorson and made available to an English-reading audience, extensively edited and introduced by Professor Orm Øverland. The essays collected in this critical companion approach Drude Krog Janson's novel from a range of various perspectives pertaining to social, cultural and gender history, aesthetic, generic and narrative fields of inquiry. At some level they all engage, however, the activity of the self's struggle to demarcate its distinguished and distinguishable space. This is the "activity" of the protagonist of A Saloonkeeper's Daughter, of the novel's reception, and on one level it is also the activity of American literature and its history.
