More Fables (Illustrated Edition)
Author: George Ade
Publisher: Echo Library
ISBN: 9781406820041
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
Ade (1866-1944) was an American writer, newspaper columnist and playwright. In 1890 he joined the Chicago Morning News (later the Chicago Record) where he wrote the column 'Stories of the Streets and of the Town' illustrating Chicago life and featuring a number of recurring characters. His well-known Fables in Slang also made their first appearance in this popular column, purveying not so much slang as the American colloquial vernacular. As a subtle moralist all too aware of the ironies of the modern world, Ade was perhaps the first modern American humorist, manifesting an ambivalence between the traditional rural virtues on which he had been raised and the craftiness he witnessed all around him in booming Chicago. This second collection of his fables to be published in book form appeared in 1900 with illustrations throughout by Clyde J. Newman.

The Chicago of Fiction
Author: James A. Kaser
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 0810877244
Category : American fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 672
Book Description
The importance of Chicago in American culture has made the city's place in the American imagination a crucial topic for literary scholars and cultural historians. While databases of bibliographical information on Chicago-centered fiction are available, they are of little use to scholars researching works written before the 1980s. In The Chicago of Fiction: A Resource Guide, James A. Kaser provides detailed synopses for more than 1,200 works of fiction significantly set in Chicago and published between 1852 and 1980. The synopses include plot summaries, names of major characters, and an indication of physical settings. An appendix provides bibliographical information for works dating from 1981 well into the 21st century, while a biographical section provides basic information about the authors, some of whom are obscure and would be difficult to find in other sources. Written to assist researchers in locating works of fiction for analysis, the plot summaries highlight ways in which the works touch on major aspects of social history and cultural studies (i.e., class, ethnicity, gender, immigrant experience, and race). The book is also a useful reader advisory tool for librarians and readers who want to identify materials for leisure reading, particularly since genre, juvenile, and young adult fiction, as well as literary fiction, are included.
