The dream of Arcady
Synopsis
This critical study explores the concept of Arcadia as it appears in American Pastoral literature, particularly within the context of the Southern States. It examines historical and philosophical interpretations of 'place' in American literary works, offering an analysis of the idealized pastoral dream. The book considers how this enduring theme shapes the understanding of American identity and landscape.
