Alger (Paperback)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, Etats-Unis
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. "Alger; A Biography Without a Hero" is a fascinating and provocative study of Horatio Alger Jr., the author who defined the American "rags-to-riches" success story. In this work, Herbert R. Mayes attempts to peel back the layers of myth surrounding the creator of the "Tattered Tom" and "Ragged Dick" series. By examining the life of a man whose name became a household word for upward mobility, Mayes presents a narrative that contrasts the moralistic, triumphant tone of Alger's novels with the complexities and contradictions of his real life.The work provides a detailed look at the social and literary landscape of the 19th century, exploring how Alger's vision of success resonated with a changing America. It moves beyond simple hagiography to provide a critical perspective on the author's motivations and the cultural impact of his vast body of work. For students of American literature and those interested in the origins of the American Dream, "Alger; A Biography Without a Hero" remains a significant and engaging exploration of a literary phenomenon and the man behind the legend.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
