Pornography in America
Provides an overview of this volatile subject, while sorting out issues, illuminating controversies, and framing the debate.
Thomas Pynchon
This pioneering work, first published in 1974, is still regarded as the best introduction to the fiction of America's premier novelist. Six chapters explore the themes of Pynchon's short fiction, V., The Crying of Lot 49, and Gravity's Rainbow, while a section added especially for this edition extends the assessment of the author's stature and impact on modern literature. The book is particularly helpful to those readers interested in Pynchon's encyclopedic approach to writing, since Slade clearly identifies the cultural, technological, and scientific elements woven into the novels.
Beyond the Two Cultures
Contains--under these topical heads: The texts of nature; Quests for paradigms; Literary responses to science and technology (the latter with these sub-heads: Newtonian mechanics and the romantic rebellion; The mataphorical allure of modern physics; Imaginative responses to mechanization; Scientists and inventors as literary heroes)--a total of fourteen essays by diverse academic authors. Good stuff, carefully edited and well produced, likely to appeal most strongly to college and university faculty who have already on their syllabi the name of C.P. Snow.
