Mavericks on the Border Hardcover - 2000

by J. Douglas Canfield


From the publisher

" Twentieth-century authors and filmmakers have created a pantheon of mavericks-some macho, others angst-ridden-who often cross a metaphorical boundary among the literal ones of Anglo, Native American, and Hispanic cultures. Douglas Canfield examines the concept of borders, defining them as the space between states and cultures and ideologies, and focuses on these border crossings as a key feature of novels and films about the region. Canfield begins in the Old Southwest of Faulkner's Mississipp

First line

In Go Down, Moses (1942) William Faulkner creates Ike McCaslin as a maverick on the border between two heritages, one white, the other mixed.
