Hailed for her remarkable social and psychological insights into
the Gilded Age lives of privileged Americans, Edith Wharton, the
first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize, was also a transnational
author who cultivated contradictory approaches to identity,
difference, and belonging. As literary studies continue to expand
beyond nation-based topics, readers are becoming more interested in
the international scope of her life and writing. Edith Wharton and
Cosmopolitanism shows that Wharton was highly engaged with global
issues of her time, due in part to her extensive travel abroad.
Examining both her canonical and lesser-known works and including
her art historical discoveries, her political writings, and her
travel writing, the essays in this volume explore Wharton's
diverse, complex, and sometimes problematic relationship to a
cosmopolitan vision.
