A glossary that will lead readers through the complexities of one
of William Faulkner's most fascinating books For some "The
Unvanquished" has proved to be the starting point for reading
Faulkner. Its narrative, composed of a series of interrelated
stories set against the backdrop of the Civil War, is more linear
and less convoluted than many of his novels. Enjoyable as this work
focused upon the Sartoris family may be in its presentation of
plots and characters, some readers encountering the world of
Faulkner's South nevertheless can be daunted by unfamiliar terms,
dialect and allusions to the folklife of Faulkner country. They can
be guided to a deeper reading pleasure by consulting this handbook
explaining Faulkner's resources. Written especially for teachers of
Faulkner, graduate students, interpretive schools, and puzzled
readers, this volume, like all others in the Reading Faulkner
Series, offers explications that reveal Faulkner's rich cultural
world. James Hinkle (d. 1990) established the Reading Faulkner
Series. He was a professor of English at San Diego State
University. Robert McCoy is an associate director at the Institute
for Readers Theatre in San Diego.
