内容説明

Much has been written about the important changes in understandings of authorship and literary labour in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. "Collaborators in Literary America" argues that the collaborative novels of this period were instrumental to that reconstruction. More than just a gimmick, these novels (there were dozens published between "The Gilded Age" (1873) by Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner and "The Sturdy Oak" (1917) by Mary Austin, Kathleen Norris, Dorothy Canfield Fisher, Henry Kitchell Webster, et al), were a serious attempt to work through the anxieties authors faced in an ever more competitive and businesslike market. By examining the issues surrounding collaborative production of writers such as Henry James, Mark Twain and William Dean Howells, Susanna Ashton demonstrates that truly in union there was strength.
