Book Synopsis Shifting World by : David C. Stineback
Book excerpt: In Shifting World Dr. Stineback analyzes a neglected characteristic of American novels -- the Jamesian "sense of the sense of the past." He demonstrates how this motif reflects an understanding of both the processes of history and the emotional burdens that those processes entail. Ten novels are studied including The Pioneers, Democracy, The Bostonians, The House of Mirth, and more.
