First published in 1961, this book has survived radical changes in
the study of literature. Combining the disciplines of folklore and
literary criticism in his readings of works by Irving, Hawthorne,
Melville and Mark Twain, Daniel Hoffman demonstrates how these
authors transformed materials from both high and popular culture,
from their European past and their American present, in works that
helped to form American national consciousness. In a new preface,
Hoffman describes the evolution of his critical method and suggests
the book's value for contemporary readers.
