Violence as a Means of Intercultural Communication in Recent Southern Fiction
Original language description
The essay focuses on the role of violence in the culture of the American South as reflected in several works of fiction by contemporary Southern authors. It deals especially with person-to-person violence used as a means of communication with people labeled as ?culturally different.? Such people can be foreigners, or the Southerners considered to be dissenters from their native culture, usually deviating from the common models of behavior and repudiating local habits after being educated abroad. The examples come from Harry Crews's A Feast of Snakes, James Dickey's Deliverance, Barry Hannah's Airships, and Lewis Nordan's Music of the Swamp and Wolf Whistle.
