Faulkner's Imperialism: Space, Place, and the Materiality of Myth (Southern Literary Studies)
Taylor Hagood
Synopsis "Faulkner's Imperialism: Space, Place, and the Materiality of Myth (Southern Literary Studies)"
In Faulkner's Imperialism, Taylor Hagood explores two staples of Faulkner's world: myth and place. Using an interdisciplinary approach to examine economic, sociological, and political factors in Faulkner's writing, he applies postcolonial theory, cultural materialism, and the work of the New Southernists to analyze how these themes intersect to encode narratives of imperialism and anti-imperialism. The resulting discussion highlights the deeply embedded imperial impulses underpinning not just Yoknapatawpha and Mississippi, but the Midwest, the Caribbean, France, and a host of often-overlooked corners of the Faulknerian map. Hagood considers the broad geographic canvas evoked in the famed writer's work and moves beyond South-versus-North paradigms to encompass all the spaces within Faulkner's created cosmos, addressing their interrelationships in a precise, holistic way.
