3.0 out of 5 stars
Disappointingly dated and prone to simplistic Freudianisms,
By mtwilson@ix.netcom.com (Athens, GA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: American Literature to 1900 (Hist of Literature) (v. 8) (Paperback)
Provides a useful overview in some ways, but also tends towards statements of this sort throughout: "Cooper seems to have been, of all American writers of the nineteenth century perhaps, the most singly and singly masculine, the most completely oriented towards his father." Penguin is doing its readers a disservice by not offering a survey volume that includes other viewpoints than this reductionist sort of pop Freudian analysis.
