The University of Alabama Press Eclipse of Empires World History in
Book SynopsisEclipse of Empires analyses the nineteenth-century American fascination with what Patricia Jane Roylance calls narratives of imperial eclipse, texts that depict the surpassing of one great civilisation by another. Patricia Jane Roylance's central claim in Eclipse of Empires is that historical episodes of imperial eclipse, for example Incan Peru yielding to Spain or the Ojibway to the French, heightened the concerns of many American writers about specific intranational social problems plaguing the nation at the timerace, class, gender, religion, economics. Given the eventual dissolution of great civilisations previously plagued by these very same problems, many writers, unlike those who confidently emphasised U.S. exceptionalism, exhibited both an anxiety about the stability of American society and a consistent practice of self-scrutiny in identifying the national defects that they felt could precipitate America's decline. Roylance studies, among other texts, James Fenimore Cooper's The

The University of Alabama Press Fighting Words
Book SynopsisFighting Words offers an entirely new understanding of what literary naturalism is and why it matters. Ira Wells, countering the standard narrative of literary naturalism's much-touted concern with environmental and philosophical determinism, draws attention to the polemical essence of the genre and demonstrates how literary naturalists engaged instead with explosive political and cultural issues that remain fervently debated today. Naturalist writers, Wells argues in Fighting Words, are united less by a coherent philosophy than by an attitude, a posture of aggressive controversy, which happens to cluster loosely around particular social issues. To an extent not yet appreciated, literary naturalists took controversialand frequently contrarianpositions on a wide range of literary, political, and social issues. Frank Norris, for instance, famously declared the innate inferiority of female novelists and frequently wrote about literature in tones suggestive of racial warfare. Theodore

The University of Alabama Press Kitchen Economics Womens Regionalist Fiction and
Book SynopsisTakes a new approach to the question of how female regionalist fictions represent the economic by situating them within traditions of classical political economic thought.
