Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - Playing with Expectations: Postmodern Narrative Choices and the African American Novel explores a merging of works by African American novelists to promote critical acceptance of postmodern literature and advance the legitimacy and usefulness of postmodern literary techniques. This book examines novels by Ishmael Reed, Charles Johnson, and Toni Morrison, and two novels by comparative newcomer Colson Whitehead all of whom have used postmodern techniques not only to help their work be read, but to gain a racially wide audience that is open, willing, and able to understand. Jean-François Lyotards concept of local narratives and grand narratives helps show how African American novels, using postmodern strategies, function as small-scale narratives. Consequently, these narratives, set up in opposition to hegemonic metanarratives, offer readers an alternative mode of thinking to that offered by the larger, more widely diffused and self-distributing grand narratives. By providing realistic characters in ways that defy the typical grand narratives of race, as well as the expectations of storytelling itself, readers are stimulated into new realizations about previously accepted ideas, and become prepared to spread the now-realized truth about the inaccuracies of the racist grand narratives.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book considers the complex and pressing issues facing the Southern peach industry in the mid-1920s. The author draws on extensive research, including a 1925 survey of peach trees and production methods in 22 key districts. Peach production in the Southern states had skyrocketed in the preceding years, with a large number of young trees coming into bearing. The author provides historical and economic context for this phenomenon, and examines the prospect of an oversupply of peaches in the near future. They also discuss methods to address the problem, including the removal of older, less productive trees, and limiting the planting of new ones. The book suggests the implementation of quality controls to improve the market value of the fruit, and considers the importance of developing a more even distribution of the crop throughout the shipping season to avoid market gluts. The book makes the case that by understanding the wider context of the challenges facing the peach industry, individual growers can make informed decisions about the management of their own orchards. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
