Recenzii

"Peyser's study of four authors--Edward Bellamy, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, William Dean Howells and Henry James--examines their fictions through the dialectic of the identity of the self and the identity of the nation as it informs a shared interrogation of 'what it might mean to be a citizen of the world'. Peyser's excellent readings of his primary texts ... are shaped by the contemporary impact of immigration and imperialism, of globalism and nationalism, and of socialism and capitalism upon the individual and the communal. Peyser constructs an argument that is convincing in its controlled execution and careful symmetry."--European Journal of American Culture, Vol 19, issue 1

"Specialists in the field will need to engage with this work. . . . "Utopia and Cosmopolis" wonderfully modifies the basic context in which late nineteenth century American literature must be read."-- Paul Bove, University of Pittsburgh
