The books opening chapter is the interrogation of the narrators memories of Jay Gatsby and his life in F. Scott Fitzgeralds The Great Gatsby. The second chapter shows how in William Faulkners Light in August memory impacts the search for identities in the storylines of the characters. The third chapter discusses the correlation between memory, self, and culture in Tennessee Williamss A Streetcar Named Desire. Discussing Robert Coovers Geralds Party, the fourth chapter reveals that memory and identity are contextualized and that cognitive processes, including memory, are grounded in the bodys interaction with the environment, featuring dehumanized characters, whose identities appear as role-plays. The subsequent chapter is the analysis of how Jonathan Safran Foers Everything Is Illuminated deals with the heritage of Holocaust memories and postmemories. The last chapter focuses on Thomas Pynchons Against the Day, the reconstructive nature of memory, and the politics and production of identity in Southeastern Europe. 001449801 650_0 $$aAmerican literature$$xHistory and criticism. 001449801 650_0 $$aModernism (Literature)$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 001449801 650_0 $$aPostmodernism (Literature)$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 001449801 650_0 $$aIdentity (Psychology) in literature. 001449801 650_0 $$aMemory in literature. 001449801 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001449801 655_7 $$aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411635 001449801 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001449801 7001_ $$aOklopcic, Biljana. 001449801 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGrmusa, Lovorka Gruic$$tMemory and identity in modern and postmodern American literature$$dSingapore : Springer,c2022$$z9789811950247 001449801 852__ $$bebk 001449801 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-19-5025-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001449801 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1449801$$pGLOBAL_SET 001449801 980__ $$aBIB 001449801 980__ $$aEBOOK 001449801 982__ $$aEbook 001449801 983__ $$aOnline 001449801 994__ $$a92$$bISE
