This article uncovers more direct links. Williams intended Butcher’s Crossing (1960) as a bleakly existential riposte to Emerson’s encouragement to “go west” in search of God in the form of a “transparent eyeball.” The novel asks what happens when the universalizing eye gazes upon the brutal rather than the godly. The same corrupted vision lies at the heart of Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian, a novel that, as Neil Campbell notes, “peer[s] into the abyss of Western American History and bears fictional witness to its terrifying and spectacular events.” In the narrative worlds of both works the role of witness is debased; there is no moral focus and no heroic central character to be deconstructed, just a passive teenager whose gaze “sees all” without feeling, the authors deliberately withholding censure. There is at their center a group of hunters led by a demonic “Ahab-like leader” whose blinkered and bloody pursuit of the elusive prey (whether skins or scalps) is transformed into an exploration of the soul. Though visual metaphors dominate, the characters remain blind, leading to a discussion as to whether they evolve morally at all.","PeriodicalId":126318,"journal":{"name":"The Cormac McCarthy Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131372176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It also came in the midst of our planning a symposium devoted to The Passenger and Stella Maris, which will be held at Creighton University in Omaha, from September 21–13, 2023. More information on that event can be found at cormacmccarthysociety.com.

“Blood will tell”: Suttree’s Drinking Class “血会证明”:萨特里的饮酒课

This article argues that alcoholism—both medical disease and metaphor for materialist excess—can be used to interpret Suttree’s actions as a critique of his father’s bourgeois values. Alcoholic consumption ironically mirrors a brand of material consumption that Suttree disdains. The article interacts with other scholarship that explains how the educated son from an affluent family chooses the life that he does, but it does so by reading Suttree’s familial discord through the shifting etymological significance of “alcoholism” as a physiological disease that also reflects social value. I argue that by understanding Suttree’s choices as the pathology of this disease, his marginal existence reads less like rebellion and more like addiction. But Suttree’s alcoholic life along the trash-riddled Tennessee River is also a reminder of the other kind of consumer excess that those of his father’s ilk represented in the halcyon economic days after World War II. The article uses a historicist approach to contextualize Suttree’s life as both the backlash to upper-class socioeconomic standing and as the life of an addict whose despair only abates if we read his “fly them” moment as a sober one.","PeriodicalId":126318,"journal":{"name":"The Cormac McCarthy Journal","volume":"210 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132625223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
