Their work offers readers and scholars both scope and complexity enough to continue to raise fresh questions and to generate innovative readings. Continuing a recent trend, historical and archival projects dramatically expand the data and the contexts with which we approach the pair. Other work usefully imports concepts and methods from other disciplines, sociology, philosophy, cultural studies, and psychology among them, and most approaches are anchored in close analysis of Wharton’s and Cather’s texts. What follows are brief commentaries on those books, book chapters, and articles we consider most potentially useful for readers and scholars. The Wharton section of the chapter is contributed by Kim Vanderlaan and the Cather section by John Swift.","PeriodicalId":40078,"journal":{"name":"American Literary Scholarship","volume":"2020 1","pages":"107 - 121"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48315755","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}

Scholars concentrate not only on The Great Gatsby and Tender is the Night but also on many of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s stories (especially “Babylon Revisited”) as well as on Zelda’s literary and visual artwork. A handful of Fitzgerald’s neglected stories, such as “I’d Die for You,” have been printed for the first time. Likewise, hundreds of Ernest Hemingway’s letters from 1929 to 1931—of which 85 percent have never previously appeared in print—have been published this year. Scholars focus on numerous aspects of Hemingway’s life and writing, including his political leanings, international travel, engagement in various wars, and mental illness. Several studies take up Across the River and into the Trees and other less frequently examined short fiction as their primary concerns.","PeriodicalId":40078,"journal":{"name":"American Literary Scholarship","volume":"2017 1","pages":"183 - 204"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48238748","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}
