Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Death of a Rebel tells the story of Charles Andrews Fenton (1919-1960), a charismaticteacher, scholar, and writer who took his own life by jumping from the top of the WashingtonDuke Hotel in Durham, North Carolina. At the time he was apparently at the peak of his career.He had written excellent books on Hemingway and Stephen Vincent Benét, had three otherbooks in press, and was working on a new version of his novel about World War II(a 1945 account won the Doubleday Twentieth Century Fox award). He had earned Guggenheimand ACLS grants. Students flocked to his courses. He was widely regarded as the most popularprofessor at Duke.Charlie Fenton's story is a compelling one, and takes on further meaning in the context of the times.An individualist during the notoriously conformist 1950s, he swam against the current, defyingauthority and openly inviting controversy. This jaunty refusal to accept received wisdom madehim an appealing figure to many of his students and colleagues. But it was a dangerous stance thatdid not sit well with his superiors, and it cost him when his fortunes took a turn for the worse in thespring and summer of 1960.Love and war had a lot to do with his suicide as well. Charlie Fenton, who had come down to Dukefrom Yale two years earlier with a promotion to full professor, fell in love with one of his graduatestudents. His wife, outraged, left and took their son Andy with her. The scandal left him alone and asocial pariah around campus. Then he suffered one of his bouts of depression. Usually these periodswere triggered by trauma, most of it derived from his service as a tail gunner with the RAFbomber command in the summer and fall of 1942. In the past he'd always been able to shake freeof his despondency. This time he was overcome by psychological pain deriving from loss: of wifeand family, of public admiration, of companionship, and worst of all, of self-regard.The book recounts Fenton's last days in vivid detail. In writing it, Donaldson had the assistance offamily members, of his devoted students, and even - at a painful distance - of the woman he fellin love with fifty years ago. They all share an abiding sense of what might have been, and a deepregret that he could not go on to inspire the uncounted students who would never get to know andadmire and learn from him.
