Ontological aspects of let us now praise famous men : death, irony, Faulkner / Mick Gidley -- On the porch and in the room : threshold moments and other ethnographic tropes in let us now praise famous men / John Dorst -- Walker Evan's contrapuntal design : the sequences of photographs in the first and second editions of Let us now praise famous men / Alan Trachtenberg -- The tyranny of words in the economy of abundance : modernism, language, and politics in Let us now praise famous men / Sue Currell -- Agee, Evans, and the therapeutic document : narrative neurosis in the function of art / Paul Hansom -- "Two prickes" : the colon as practice / Paula Rabinowitz -- Animating the Gudgers : on the problems of a cinematic aesthetic in Let us now praise famous men / Caroline Blinder -- Epilogue. Agee and Evans : "On the porch: 4" / William Stott.

This timely reappraisal of Walker Evans and James Agee's photo-textual collaboration Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, 1941 focuses on the interdisciplinary aspects of the book. It provides in-depth chapters on the book's status as part imaginative fiction, documentary effort, ethnographic study, confessional writing, and modernist prose. Contributions range from chapters on Walker Evan's photographs and their seminal role in representing the South, material on the journalistic and sociological context for Agee and Evans's collaboration, their personal relationship and more. Taking into account such concepts as psychoanalysis, photography, cinema, ethnography, semiotics, journalism and the South, among other things, these essays constitute a long overdue and important endeavor within American Studies.
