Beschreibung:
The introduction and four original scholarly essays in this volume address the established reputation of The Education of Henry Adams as a classic work of American autobiography and canonical work of American literature. Examining The Education in terms of early twentieth-century American attitudes toward education, gender, U.S. foreign policy, and historiography, these essays add considerably to our understanding of The Education as an expression of its time, while helping to explain its continuing importance in ours.
1. Introduction John Carlos Rowe; 2. The education of an American classic: the survival of failure Brook Thomas; 3. Being a Begonia in a man's world Martha Banta; 4. Henry Adams's Education in the age of Imperialism John Carlos Rowe; 5. The Education and the salvation of history Howard Horwitz.
