Our America : Nativism, Modernism, And Pluralism

  • Our America : Nativism, Modernism, And Pluralism

  • Attribution

    Walter Benn Michaels

  • Publication Details

    Book, Duke University Press, 1995

  • Description

    Arguing that the contemporary commitment to the importance of cultural identity has renovated rather than replaced an earlier commitment to racial identity, Walter Benn Michaels asserts that the idea of culture, far from constituting a challenge to racism, is actually a form of racism. Michaels?s sustained rereading of the texts of the period?the canonical, the popular, and the less familiar?exposes recurring concerns such as the reconception of the image of the Indian as a symbol of racial purity and national origins, the relation between World War I and race, contradictory appeals to the family as a model for the nation, and anxieties about reproduction that subliminally tie whiteness and national identity to incest, sterility, and impotence.
