    Book, University Press of New England, 2003
  • Description

    Abandoned New England focuses on five modern American visual artists and poets–Winslow Homer, Robert Frost, Edward Hopper, Andrew Wyeth, and Elizabeth Bishop–who portrayed the stark traditional beauty of New England landscape. Landscape iconology, ecocriticism, green cultural studies, cultural geography, and aesthetics provide fresh perspectives on how iconic New England artists have depicted landscape, revised stale conventions, undermined biases surrounding nativism, and recharged our reception of the rustic pastoral.
