Darwin and Faulkner's novelsevolution andsouthern fiction /[electronic resource] :Michael Wainwright. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2008. - xii, 243 p.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [223]-236) and index.

Looking across the Atlantic -- Hand in hand with the old gentleman -- The complex temple of sexual politics -- Pangenesis and southern thought -- From race to ecology -- Philosophical frontiers-- The enemy within -- Self-interest, cooperation, and beyond.

Displaying a wide range of knowledge and interpretive skill, Darwin and Faulkner's Novels reexamines the fiction of the great twentieth century American author from the interdisciplinary perspective of sociobiology. Challenging the assumption that Faulkner's South was nothing other than a reactionary wilderness and charting the manner in which Faulkner learned and applied his evolutionary concepts, this book unsettles staid interpretations of the Falknerian canon and overturns habitual judgments as to the value of his later novels.
