REPUBLIC OF WORDS: THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY AND ITS WRITERS, 1857-1925
Book ID/图书代码： 12411011B44833
English Summary/英文概要： A record of Atlantic Monthly authors reads like a Who’s Who of American literature. The magazine’s stable of contributors included Mark Twain, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Frederick Douglass, Louisa May Alcott, Sarah Orne Jewett, Kate Chopin, Henry Adams, Frank Norris, Jack London, Henry James, Owen Wister, Robert Frost, and many others.
In Republic of Words, Susan Goodman brilliantly captures this emerging culture of arts, ideas, science, and literature of an America in its adolescence, as filtered through the intersecting lives and words of the best and brightest writers of the day. Through this lens, Goodman examines the life of the magazine from its emergence in 1857 through the 1920s.

在《文字的共和国》中，苏珊•古德曼敏锐地抓住美国文化青春期中的艺术，思想，科学和文学，包括当今最杰出作者的交流和观点。通过这些视角，古德曼向读者解析了《大西洋月刊》从1857年创刊到上世纪20年代的历程过往。（XAT）
Awards/获奖情况：“《大西洋月刊》有像威廉•迪安•豪厄尔斯一样杰出的主编，他懂得杂志的内容要依附于作者越多不同的个性越好。古德曼的这本书就顺着豪厄尔斯的轨迹，在无趣的大环境中做出了些不一样的东西。”《时代文学副刊》
“古德曼的这本新作简洁而充满智慧，为读者介绍了美国最领先的文学杂志之一。其中融合了文本介绍和历史背景，古德曼似用一种显微镜的视角带我们认识了过往那些在美国文学历史上留下大量精彩作品的作家。高度推荐！”——《选择报》
“Taking her cue from editors such as William Dean Howells, who ‘knew that books lived as much on author’s personalities as on their contents’, Goodman’s own book, with its Dickensian array of characters, stands out amid drier studies of the same milieu.”—Times Literary Supplement
“Goodman delivers an admirably concise but textured examination of one of the nation’s leading intellectual magazines. . . . Melding textual analyses with biographical and historical background, the author provides something of a microcosmic look at the writing of an astonishing number of literary luminaries who graced the publication’s pages. . . . Highly recommended.”—Choice
