The Nonhuman in American Literary Naturalism presents a fresh and insightful exploration of American literary naturalism, delving into the previously under-researched aspects of the genre that fall under the term "Nonhuman." This comprehensive collection of essays, brought together by an international team of scholars, focuses on the representation of nonhuman animals, other vital or inert species, objects, entities, cityscapes, and seascapes in American literary naturalism. Drawing from a range of theoretical and philosophical perspectives, including animal studies, ecocriticism, posthumanism, new materialism, and more, the essays in this volume examine early naturalist texts by renowned authors such as Norris, Crane, Dreiser, London, Wharton, and Cather, as well as contemporary followers in the tradition of American literary naturalism. These include Hemingway, Agee & Evans, Petry, Hamilton, Dick, Vonnegut, Tepper, and DeLillo. The collection aims to broaden and deepen the connections between nonhuman studies and texts associated with American literary naturalism, fostering a more productive scholarly discourse on this significant movement in American literary history. By exploring the multifaceted roles of nonhuman creatures and their interactions with human characters, the Nonhuman in American Literary Naturalism offers a valuable contribution to our understanding of the genre and its enduring impact on American literature.
