Philip Roth S Postmodern American Romance: Critical Essays on Selected Works Foreword by Derek Parker Royal


Overview

The central thesis of this book is that Philip Roth s work is most accurately viewed as postmodernist American Historical Romance, rather than marginalized as Jewish-American. Four works are analyzed in relation to this thesis and to the specific idea that Roth s contribution is entirely within mainstream American literature and culture. Emphasizing the importance and influence of Hebrew Scripture, the author demonstrates that, paradoxically, Roth s Jewishness locates him squarely within the canon of (a Hebraic) America and its letters.
