Beskrivning
Where does a literary reputation originate and why are so many writers' reputations subject to the caprices of academic or critical fashion? Basing his arguments on the tradition of Nathaniel Hawthorne, who has survived long periods in the literary wilderness to become one of America's most important novelists, Brodhead investigates the question of how pasts get created and distributed, and what it means to live within or without the presence of such pasts.

`Brodhead's book is a very good addition to Hawthorne criticism as well as to the theory of how literary tradition is made and remade...will be a welcomed text in graduate and major university libraries.' Choice `Richard Brodhead...proves here once again that he is a brilliant reader and a brilliant writer. In fact, one is almost inclined to distrust a prose so consistently and simultaneously dense and lucid and so studded with witty and wise phrases and sentences...The School of Hawthorne is a joy to read. But what will make it an important and enduring contribution to the study of American literature and culture is the wisdom of its argument...Richard Brodhead will become (dare one say it?) a `classic' interpreter of American literature and of its complex history.' New England Quarterly
