Narratives of California's Heartland
Author: Stacie Anna Townsend
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Fictional literature has played an intrinsic role in fueling our collective public knowledge and sentiment about places. Of these places, California-based literature is a prime example. However, treatment of California's many varied landscapes in fiction has not been evenly investigated by scholars. Particularly, the literary landscape of California's Central Valley has been under-examined for its contributions to geographic knowledge of the state. The Central Valley landscape seems to occupy a kind of void in the center of California- perhaps then, even a void in California culture at large. The purpose of this research is to deconstruct the creation and perpetuation of California's Central Valley as a physical landscape and geographic construct using a literary content analysis of California fiction. What is the regional imaginary of the Central Valley over the 20th century as depicted by authors and their fictional works? This research focuses on the prevalence of contradictory depictions of this region's locales; the differences in writing and authorship concerning the region's environments; and how landscape changes have been represented in writings about the Valley. These themes are explored through an analysis of the Central Valley's aesthetics of landscape and landscape change, dynamics of social and labor inequalities amid patterns of marginalization, and finally, the region's positionality as a place of adjacency.
