Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of 54 short stories that have had a major influence on the development of the genre in the United States. Published in 1907 by renowned literary critic and author Brander Matthews, the stories provide an overview of America's literary heritage up to that point. The stories are organised chronologically and include the works of Washington Irving, Edgar Allan Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Bret Harte, and others. The collection begins with the first American short story, Irving's Rip Van Winkle, and ends with a story by Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews, a contemporary of Matthews. This book shows the evolution of the American short story, from its early days as a form of folklore to its development into a sophisticated literary form. The stories in this collection are not only great works of literature, but also a valuable resource for understanding the development of American literature. Whether you are a fan of short stories, American literature, or both, this book is a must-have for your collection.
