About this product
Product Information
Hawthorne's Literary History collects together the essays Professor Colacurcio has written on Hawthorne since the publication of his ground-breaking Province of Piety, elaborating and refining his analyses of how Hawthorne's most memorable early tales "do history," but proceeding then to explore the later productions of that author's distinguished career.

Reviews
Best known for The Province of Piety: Moral History in Hawthorne's Early Tales (CH, Apr'85), Colacurcio (UCLA) gathered his essays in previous volumes, e.g., Doctrine and Difference: Essays in the Literature of New England (1997). Written "for different occasions" left unidentified, the essays in the present volume share "a commitment to the more-or-less conservative principles of historical scholarship" (p. 8) that has long been Colacurcio's hallmark. He was conservative in this sense in his first book, in which history is sometimes the opposite of nationalist piety, as when he explains that the allusion to "Lovell's Fight" in the headnote to "Roger Malvin's Burial" evokes a history of "slaughter." In this new volume, he discusses Hawthorne's career more comprehensively and adds a compelling reading of the two "Allegories of the Heart" in Mosses from an Old Manse (1846). The idea that the "Allegories" join Emerson at the abyss of philosophical skepticism in "Experience" (1846), addressed in chapter 5, seems new and compelling. That such a painstaking scholar does not provide the full bibliographical details for his own work is inexplicable, but the book is nonetheless a valuable resource--T. Ware, emeritus, Queen's University at Kingston, "In Hawthorne's Histories, Hawthorne's World, the leading scholar of Hawthorne and his place in early American literature and thought extends the scope of his magisterial book The Province of Piety in a number of new directions. Taken together, the two books give us the most complete and incisive critical assessment of Hawthorne we are ever likely to have." --Eric J. Sundquist, Andrew W. Mellon Professor in the Humanities, Emeritus, Johns Hopkins University, USA, "The combination of magisterial command of both primary and secondary sources, stylistic flair and incendiary originality is more than rare, even singular. Professor Colacurcio advances a distinguished career with his reflections on one of the five big men featured by F. O. Matthiessen, he whom the MLA's last polling of college and university Americanists ranked the most important of nineteenth-century US authors. Colacurcio's Hawthorne's Histories will be the one all future commentators will have to consult before attempting to add to the considerable archive of Hawthorne criticism." --R. C. De Prospo, Ernest A. Howard Chair of English Literature, Chair, American Studies, Washington College, USA, Michael Colacurcio brings to this book his wicked wit, keen intelligence and more knowledge of Hawthorne's writing, sources and historical imagination than anyone else alive. The result is a masterful overview of Hawthorne's multi-phased literary corpus--from Salem's ghosts of the past all the way to Rome and The Marble Faun." --John Gatta, William R. Kenan Jr. Professor of English Emeritus, The University of the South - Sewanee, USA
