In Studies in American Literature, D. H. Lawrence’s brilliance as both a writer and a critic shimmers with energy and originality. His thought-provoking look at canonized American literature is a brazenly opinionated, unabashed, playfully irreverent examination of authors and works that have shaped the American literary imagination. His unyielding intellectual curiosity sheds new light on the grand tapestry of Walt Whitman’s poetic vision, the daring spirit of Edgar Allan Poe’s dark tales, the transformative power of Nathaniel Hawthorne’s allegorical genius, and the raw passion of Herman Melville’s maritime epics, among other assessments. For scholars, students, and passionate readers alike, Studies in Classic American Literature offers an invitation to join a vibrant dialogue with D. H. Lawrence as he dismantles traditional paradigms, reveals fresh perspectives that challenge the conventional understanding of some cherished classics, and explores the heart and soul of a nation through its literary legacy. This Warbler Classics edition includes an extensive biographical timeline.
