#faulkner — Public Fediverse posts

“I knew almost nothing about the #Jewish aspect, as opposed to the #Southern aspect, of my family’s history,” #Lemann, a staff #writer at the #NewYorker and #professor and dean emeritus at #Columbia #Journalism School, #writes in Returning: A Search for Home Across Three Centuries. Jewish was more the way others thought of the family than how they viewed themselves. Or so he thought.

Lemann’s #book is his fifth and his most personal, reaching back in time to uncover how his aristocratic, well-established life in #Louisiana was a relatively modern development following decades of #assimilation.

It is a family portrait in a unique milieu — #Faulkner and #RobertPennWarren meets #IrvingHowe’s World of Our Fathers — that follows the rough contours of the #Torah: the original sins of slavery, #Exodus and the conflicted push towards a promised land with political #Zionism and a codification of life as Lemann reclaims tradition. It’s a compelling read..."

The Underwood portable typewriter was introduced in 1920 and became popular with writers of the lost generation.

Faulkner and Hemingway both used one, and Orson Welles had a flamboyantly decorated red woodgrain model. #Faulkner #Hemingway #Writing #Typewriters 6/14

Reinterpret and reimagine? Half the fun will be in rediscovering!

Open Humanities Press has published Tom Cohen's #book Ecocide and Inscription vol. 1: Black Ops. Petrolepathy, Escaped Slaves, Cinemacide – A Tele-mnemonics for the After-Times.

Examining works by #Faulkner, #Morrison and #Hitchcock among others, Tom Cohen traces a ‘hyper-blackness’ that exceeds racial binaries and links to the viscous materiality of #oil. He argues that this #blackness before face or figuration offers a way to rupture the ‘Anthropocene’ spell and its attendant anaesthesias. By tracking inscriptions that melt back into a prefigural domain, Cohen outlines a literary structure of #climatechange itself, one that undoes conventional notions of meaning, reference, and #human exceptionalism.

The #Guardian obit for #RobbieRobertson makes a good point. When Robertson penned #TheWeight, his writing influences were #BobDylan meets #Faulkner, #EudoraWelty & #FlanneryOConnor.
