EDITH WHARTON
AND THE POLITICS
OF RACE
Edith Wharton feared that the ill-bred, foreign and poor would
overwhelm what was known as the American native elite. Drawing on
a range of turn-of-the-century social documents, unpublished archival
material and Wharton
s
major novels, Jennie Kassanoff argues that
a fuller appreciation of American culture and democracy becomes
available through a sustained engagement with these controversial
views. She pursues her theme through Wharton
s
spirited participation
in a variety of turn-of-the-century discourses
-
from euthanasia and
tourism to pragmatism and Native Americans
—
to produce a truly
interdisciplinary study of this major American writer. Kassanoff locates
Wharton squarely in the middle of the debates on race, class and
democratic pluralism at the turn of the twentieth century. Drawing
on diverse cultural materials, she offers close readings that will be of
interest to scholars of American literature and culture.
Jennie a. kassanoff is Associate Professor of English at Barnard
College in New York. Her articles have appeared in Arizona Quarterly
and PMLA.
