AMERICAN SYMPATHY: MEN, FRIENDSHIP, AND LITERATURE IN THE NEW NATION - Rare Fine Copy of The First Hardcover Edition/First Printing: Signed, Placed, And Dated by Caleb Crain - SIGNED ON THE TITLE PAGE
Published by New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 2001, 2001
ISBN 10: 0300083327 ISBN 13: 9780300083323
Language: English
First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 320 pages. Published in 2001. Book-length account on subject. One of the most valuable books on American literary culture ever published in our time. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only by a University Press. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Caleb Crain's "American Sympathy: Men, Friendship, And Literature In The New Nation". On the intimate relation between emergent American literature and male friendship. "In the history of friendship in early America, Caleb Crain sees the soul of the nation's literature. In a sensitive analysis that weaves together literary criticism and historical narrative, Crain describes the strong friendships between men that supported and inspired some of America's greatest writing: The Gothic novels of Charles Brockden Brown, the essays of Ralph Waldo Emerson, and the novels of Herman Melville. Crain demonstrates the many ways in which the struggle to commit feelings to paper informed the shape and texture of American literature" (Publisher's blurb). The beauty of Crain's narrative-argument lies in its duality: It is about the homo-eroticism of masculine friendships, recounted by the author with grace and subtlety. Homo-eroticism is not homosexuality; indeed, it precludes the latter. At the same time (and having done his homework), Crain also shows, compellingly, the undeniably homosexual strain, however deeply repressed and sublimated, in American literature. The works of Herman Melville and Ralph Waldo Emerson are not "period pieces" of early American literature. These are great, transcendent writers whose achievements remain immensely influential. They have not been superseded much less surpassed by their modern counterparts. An absolute "must-have" title for Caleb Crain collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed, dated, and placed in black pen on the title page by the author: "Caleb Crain 22 Sept 2013 NYC". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few such signed and dated copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant American writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER CALEB CRAIN TITLE IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0300083327. Signed by Author.
