Birth-Mark - Howe Susan
In this classic, groundbreaking exploration of early American literature, Susan Howe reads our intellectual inheritance as a series of civil wars, where each text is a wilderness in which a strange lawless author confronts interpreters and editors eager for settlement. In the process, Howe uproots settled institutionalized roles of men and women as well as of poetry and prose--and of poetry and prose. Howe approaches Anne Hutchinson, Mary Rowlandson, Cotton Mather, Hawthorne, Emerson, Melville and Emily Dickinson as a fellow writer--her insights, fierce and original, are rooted in her seminal textural scholarship in examination of their editorial histories of landmark works.
