    The Narrative of the Most Remarkable Particulars in the Life of James Albert Ukawsaw Gronniosaw appropriates Evangelical discourse in order to establish Gronniosaw’s moral authority, which is derived from Gronniosaw’s submission to God, has to be authenticated by clerical authorities and allows him to criticize his corrupt masters. Gronniosaw exposes discrepancies between his masters’ religious and economic discourses and practices less by direct argument than by the negating force of conspicuous silence, by repetitions of scenes of abuse and abject poverty and by the ironic emplotment of his life. Being a good Christian alienates him from Western society and endangers his very survival in a commercial culture, which undermines the language of the spirit and compares unfavourably to the African subsistence economy.

    This paper studies one of the earliest forms of modern consumer culture—the road book—in relation to one of the early utopias of modern consumption—California. Criticism has traditionally treated the road book as an extension of a loosely defined transcendentalist project, where drivers take to the open road to “discover” themselves in nature. The determinate context, however, is corporate rather than literary-historical. The earliest road books were advertisements. Their itineraries linked up with other spatial technologies (e.g. the conveyor belts in automobile plants and modern highways), transforming space into a vast production and distribution network. Production and distribution intersected in California, the state with the most automobiles per capita and the destination of most early road trips. The first section of the paper considers the journey to California from the perspective of Emily Post, who would later become a famous writer on etiquette. Post’s book is the narrative equivalent to the standardized roadside architecture, converting local difference into a tourist attraction, and local (especially ethnic) identity into a commodity. The next section considers the effects of commercial homogenization on gender, focusing on the moment when some women, taking the steering wheel, assumed agency as consumers. The primary texts here are some of the early novels of Sinclair Lewis, along with examples of sociology and advertising copy from the 1920s and 1930s. The final section analyzes the WPA Guidebook to California as a federal attempt to re-map corporate space—the space of tourist attractions and consumers—according to a progressive ideal. All three sections treat the tour form as a spatial and literary structure—a privileged topos, at once geographical and symbolic, where complex relations between identity and place are negotiated in the form of a journey. ; Goethe Universität Frankfurt am Main ; publikationen.ub.uni-frankfurt.de/frontdoor/index/index/docId/36934

    This article argues that decades before Sir Walter Scott published his first historical novel, a number of innovative British novels questioned the possibility of rendering historical topics in narrative form. Although Henry Fielding had claimed that the novel should closely resemble historiography, three eighteenth-century British novelists recognized the problems besetting the attempt to provide true stories of the past in different ways. Sarah Fielding tried to get rid of the elevated position of the ‘omniscient’ narrator, rejecting even chronological order in her fictionalised account of the lives of Cleopatra and Octavia. Laurence Sterne parodied not only historiographical ways of arriving at true knowledge of past events in his seminal novel Tristram Shandy, he also demonstrated that the story is the result of the narrator’s use of narrative conventions and of language, and that the gap between the past and the representation of the past cannot be bridged. Maria Edgeworth tried to get rid of the historiographical dilemma by choosing an unreliable narrator as a biographer in her work Castle Rackrent, which is one of those eighteenth-century novels that casts doubt on whether it is possible to tell a true story of the past with those narrative means which Scott would later use to great acclaim.
