Book excerpt: The ground covered by these essays also reflects this diversity: literary works discussed include the film Bless Their Little Hearts, Abraham Cahan's book The Rise of David Levinsky, Edgar Allan Poe's antebellum novel The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym, and the journal Jewish Studies. Other subjects discussed include the ideology of an eighteenth-century survey course, the rhetorical authority of the feminist teacher, readers of the Broadway musical, the incommensurate historical accounts of Europeans and Native Americans, and the mainstream media's one-sided coverage of the Gulf War.
