No longer satisfied to look only at the individual work, critics are instead surveying the whole field of Faulknerâs fiction. Many of the lectures collected in this volume direct attention to the full scope and range of Faulknerâs fictional world, searching for, and finding, unity, harmony, and interrelationships. Some of the essays, like Ellen Douglasâs âFaulkner in Timeâ and James Carothersâs âThe Road to The Reivers,â examine all of Faulknerâs novels, seeking to uncover an overall design and meaning. Others trace the appearances, in work after work, of one theme or figure. Among the subjects considered in this way are Faulknerâs women, his black characters, his heroes, his aristocrats, and his attitude toward death.
Taken together, these essays implicitly acknowledge the appropriateness of metaphor of a cosmos for Faulknerâs fictional creation. To be fully and accurately understood, each single part of Faulknerâs vast system of fictional meanings, like the separate worlds in a cosmos, must be assessed in the context of the whole.
About: Reflecting developments in Faulkner criticism, these papers delivered at the 1980 Faulkner and Yoknapatawtha Conference point the way to a new and relatively unexplored avenue of researchâthe study of relationships among Faulknerâs seemingly distinct novels.
