| book description |

Exploring Edith Wharton's engagement with global issues in her life and writing Hailed for her remarkable social and psychological insights into the Gilded Age lives of privileged Americans, Edith Wharton, the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize, was also a transnational author who cultivated contradictory approaches to identity, difference, and belonging. As literary studies continue to expand beyond nation-based topics, readers are becoming more interested in the international scope of her life and writing. Edith Wharton and Cosmopolitanism shows that Wharton was highly engaged with global issues of her time, due in part to her extensive travel abroad. Examining both her canonical and lesser-known works and including her art historical discoveries, her political writings, and her travel writing, the essays in this volume explore Whartonâ€™s diverse, complex, and sometimes problematic relationship to a cosmopolitan vision. Contributors: FerdÃ¢ Asya William Blazek Rita Bode Donna Campbell Mary Carney Clare Virginia Eby June Howard Meredith L. Goldsmith Sharon Kim D. Medina Lasansky Maureen Montgomery Emily J. Orlando Margaret A. Toth Gary Totten
