Zusammenfassung: | Abstract: This doctoral project is an in-depth examination of the subversive narratives in the late 19th and early 20th Century Classic American Western. The dissertation focuses on the elements within these works which anticipate the later Revisionist Western genre. The study explores the Classic American Western’s role in expressing contemporary conditions of non-normative issues and socio-cultural groups in canonical fiction. This focus ranges from defining the Classic and Revisionist Western genres whose narratives are informed by the normative elements of white, heterosexual working-class masculinity, to inclusive research which expands canonical readings to African American and Native American Western fiction. This work explores how the intersectional convergence of class, race, and gender was accomplished by these authors through appropriating the thematic and mytho-nationalist ethos of the Western in order to challenge subaltern positions |
