Název v původním jazyce

The Cult of the Noble Savage: James Fenimore Cooper?s The Last of the Mohicans

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Even though the terms cult and myth are often used interchangeably, a distinction should be drawn between them. I derive the meaning of the term ?cult? in the collocation ?the Cult of the Noble Savage? from the original meaning of cult as a loosely structured and little-formalized worship of a cult object. Although it is ultimately the quality of the reader?s response that determines the status of cult, a number of various distinctive features of cult were identified in literary criticism and some of them were examined and applied to the cult of the Noble Savage. I argued that in American literature it was James Fenimore Cooper who in his most popular novel, The Last of the Mohicans, transformed the myth of the Noble Savage from a pattern of thought toa cult figure as a pattern of experience.
