    Biographical note: James Dorson is an assistant professor of North American Studies at the John F. Kennedy Institute of Freie Universität Berlin. - Long description: Counternarrative Possibilities reads Cormac McCarthy's Westerns against the backdrop of two formative tropes in American mythology: virgin land (from the 1950s) and homeland (after '9/11' ). Looking at McCarthy's Westerns in the context of American Studies, James Dorson shows how his novels counter the national narratives underlying these tropes and reinvest them with new, potentially transformative meaning. Departing from prevailing accounts of McCarthy that place him in relation to his literary antecedents, Counternarrative Possibilities takes a forwardlooking approach that reads McCarthy's work as a key influence on millennial fiction. Weaving together disciplinary history with longstanding debates over the relationship between aesthetics and politics, this book is at once an exploration of the limits of ideology critique in the twenty-first century and an original reconsideration of McCarthy's work 'after postmodernism'.

    Nordamerikastudien Cormac McCarthys Wildwestromane bewegen sich stets im Spannungsfeld der für die amerikanische Mythologie prägenden Metaphern des »Virgin Land« und des »Homeland«. Vor dem Hintergrund dieser Interpretation zeigt James Dorson, dass McCarthys Romane eine Strategie der Gegenerzählung zu den beiden amerikanischen Mythen entwickeln, ihnen aber im gleichen Zug eine neue, potenziell transformative Bedeutung verleihen. Durch die Verknüpfung der Wissenschaftsgeschichte der Amerikastudien mit Fragen nach der Verhandlung von Ästhetik und Politik erfasst dieser Band die Grenzen der Ideologiekritik und bietet zudem eine über die Konzeptuellen Grenzen des Postmodernismus hinausreichende Neuinterpretation von McCarthys Werk. James Dorson ist Juniorprofessur für nordamerikanische Literatur an der FU Berlin.
