Recent scholarly trends and controversies in Gertrude Stein
scholarship have focused on her politics and her friendships as
well as on Stein the collector, the celebrity, the visual icon.
Clearly, these recent examinations not only deepen our
understanding of Stein but also attest to her staying power. Yet
Stein's writing itself too often remains secondary. The central
premise of Primary Stein is that an extraordinary amount of textual
scholarship remains to be done on Stein's work, whether the
well-known, the little-known, or yet unpublished. The essays in
Primary Stein draw on recent interdisciplinary examinations, using
cultural and historical contexts to enrich and complicate how we
might read, understand, and teach Stein's writing. Following
Stein's own efforts throughout her lifetime to shift the focus from
her personality to her writing, these innovative essays turn the
lens back to a wide range of her texts, including novels, plays,
lectures and poetry. Each essay takes Stein's primary works as its
core interpretive focus, returning scholarly conversations to the
challenges and pleasures of working with Stein's texts.
