Sammanfattning: Since the 1970s there has been a strong renewal of interest in American regions. Presenting the contemporary outlook of key interpreters focusing on the South, the West, New England, and the Midwest, this book shows that there has been a renaissance of regional studies. The essays in this volume, papers presented at the Porter L. Fortune History Symposium at the University of Mississippi in 1993, are products of this new wave of scholarship. The New Regionalism the scholars discuss here focuses on the geography of place, the local context of differing physical environments, and the centrality of social relations that includes attention to the key concerns of race, class, and gender. -- Provided by publisher.
