{"product_id":"critical-approaches-to-american-working-class-literature","title":"Critical Approaches to American Working-Class Literature","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book is one of the first collections on a neglected field in American literature: that written by and about the working-class. Examining literature from the 1850s to the present, contributors use a wide variety of critical approaches, expanding readers’ understanding of the critical lenses that can be applied to working-class literature. Drawing upon theories of media studies, postcolonial studies, cultural geography, and masculinity studies, the essays consider slave narratives, contemporary poetry and fiction, Depression-era newspaper plays, and ethnic American literature. Depicting the ways that working-class writers render the lives, the volume explores the question of what difference class makes, and how it intersects with gender, race, ethnicity, and geographical location.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54246218793304,"sku":"9781138849709","price":42.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138849709_c9f2d3f2-c338-4494-9752-6cb36ba852fd.jpg?v=1769625929","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/critical-approaches-to-american-working-class-literature","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
