Zusammenfassung: | John D. Kerkering's study examines the literary history of racial and national identity in nineteenth-century America. Kerkering argues that writers such as DuBois, Lanier, Simms, and Scott used poetic effects to assert the distinctiveness of certain groups in a diffuse social landscape. Kerkering explores poetry's formal properties, its sound effects, as they intersect with the issues of race and nation. He shows how formal effects, ranging from meter and rhythm to alliteration and melody, provide these writers with evidence of a collective identity, whether national or racial. Through this shared reliance on formal literary effects, national and racial identities, Kerkering shows, are related elements of a single literary history. This is the story of how poetic effects helped to define national identities in Anglo-America as a step toward helping to define racial identities within the United States. This highly original study will command a wide audience of Americanists |

Kerkering The Poetics of National & Racial Identity in Nineteenth-Century American Literature Cambridge Cambridge University Press 2003 1 online resource (xiii, 351 pages) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Cambridge studies in American literature and culture 139 Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015) I: The poetics of national identity -- 1. "We are five-and-forty": meter and national identity in Sir Walter Scott -- 2. "Our sacred union." "our beloved Apalachia": nation and genius loci in Hawthorne and Simms -- II: The poetics of racial identity -- 3. "Of me and of mine": the music of racial identity -- 4. "Blood will tell": literary effects and the diagnosis of racial instinct -- The conservation of identities John D. Kerkering's study examines the literary history of racial and national identity in nineteenth-century America. Kerkering argues that writers such as DuBois, Lanier, Simms, and Scott used poetic effects to assert the distinctiveness of certain groups in a diffuse social landscape. Kerkering explores poetry's formal properties, its sound effects, as they intersect with the issues of race and nation. He shows how formal effects, ranging from meter and rhythm to alliteration and melody, provide these writers with evidence of a collective identity, whether national or racial. Through this shared reliance on formal literary effects, national and racial identities, Kerkering shows, are related elements of a single literary history. This is the story of how poetic effects helped to define national identities in Anglo-America as a step toward helping to define racial identities within the United States.
