Bøker av David Anthony

Out of the Blue explores the intersection of myth and reality in everyday life. With vivid imagery and rich themes, the author mines his own experiences and world mythology to share a personal vision quest."The poems and stories in Out of the Blue take their time. As they unfold, they invite us inward, into memories, musings, anxieties, and sudden pleasures of people whose points of view we grasp with a shock of recognition: the moments in which we find them--on a bus, on a snowy mountainside, by a hearth where a dead bird lies in ashes--are strangely familiar. We meet them in the deep interiority of their self-knowing and are led to recollect ourselves. Anthony's fine sense of character, pace, and phrase entices us from one piece to the next, When the last page comes, the clear next step will be to begin again."Marilyn McEntyre, UC Berkeley. Author of Caring for Words in a Culture of Lies

Paper Money Men: Commerce, Manhood, and the Sensational Public Sphere in Antebellum America by David Anthony outlines the emergence of a "sensational public sphere" in antebellum America. It argues that this new representational space reflected and helped shape the intricate relationship between commerce and masculine sensibility in a period of dramatic economic upheaval. Looking at a variety of sensational media-from penny press newspapers and pulpy dime novels to the work of well-known writers such as Irving, Hawthorne, and Melville-this book counters the common critical notion that the period's sensationalism addressed a primarily working-class audience. Instead, Paper Money Men shows how a wide variety of sensational media was in fact aimed principally at an emergent class of young professional men. "Paper money men" were caught in the transition from an older and more stable mercantilist economy to a panic-prone economic system centered on credit and speculation. And, Anthony argues, they found themselves reflected in the sensational public sphere, a fantasy space in which new models of professional manhood were repeatedly staged and negotiated. Compensatory in nature, these alternative models of manhood rejected fiscal security and property as markers of a stable selfhood, looking instead toward intangible factors such as emotion and race in an effort to forge a secure sense of manhood in an age of intense uncertainty.
