Edited with an Introduction and Notes by Anthony Mellors and Fiona Robertson Oxford Oxford University Press 1998 Oxford World's Classics In 1895 Stephen Crane achieved early fame with his powerful, enigmatic portrayal of a raw recruit's experience of war, "The Red Badge of Courage". Although Crane had never experienced battle, he wrote with rare insight and immediacy of his young protagonist's fluctuating emotions, in a style that had a profound influence on American fiction. This selection includes the 1896 coda to the story, "The Veteran", and the best of Crane's other fiction: the impressionist masterpiece "The Open Boat"; "The Monster", perhaps the most complex and disturbing of all Crane's works; and "The Blue Hotel", his greatest western story. This edition explores Crane's work from a fresh critical perspective and introduces new research on the imaginative relationship between Crane's novel and the Civil War. 9780192833150 9780192833150 eng With Introduction, Explanatory Notes, Bibliography and Chronology. 249 Seiten
