Greg Forter interprets modernism as an effort to mourn a form of white manhood that fused the 'masculine' with the 'feminine'. He argues that modernists were engaged in a poignant yet deeply conflicted effort to hold on to socially 'feminine' and racially marked aspects of identity, qualities that the new social order encouraged them to disparage. Examining works by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, William Faulkner and Willa Cather, Forter shows how these writers shared an ambivalence toward the feminine and an unease over existing racial categories that made it difficult for them to work through the loss of the masculinity they mourned. Gender, Race, and Mourning in American Modernism offers a bold new reading of canonical modernism in the United States"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000840039 650_0 $$aAmerican fiction$$y20th century$$xHistory and criticism. 000840039 650_0 $$aModernism (Literature)$$zUnited States. 000840039 650_0 $$aGender identity in literature. 000840039 650_0 $$aRace in literature. 000840039 650_0 $$aGrief in literature. 000840039 852__ $$bebk 000840039 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=691960$$zOnline Access 000840039 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:840039$$pGLOBAL_SET 000840039 980__ $$aEBOOK 000840039 980__ $$aBIB 000840039 982__ $$aEbook 000840039 983__ $$aOnline
