Book excerpt: "The Main Chance" by Mr. Meredith Nicholson, is well deserving of the recognition it is gaining. It is not only one of the very best American novels we have had from a new writer in recent years, it approaches more nearly that artistic blending of the romantic and the real in our every-day life which is achieved by very few writers of modern fiction. One notes, also, with pride and pleasure in the growing movement of our fiction toward a national literature, that "The Main Chance" relates the particular life it portrays to the national life at large, and makes itself felt as an important part of the whole country. Mr. Nicholson is evidently conscious of this significant fact. "It seems to me," he wrote the other day. "that our fiction, where it expresses honestly some phase of our life and really catches and holds an atmosphere to knit us together -- to make a real national unit of us."Though a first novel, "The Main Chance" gives its author a place at a bound among our foremost young novelists.-Harper's Weekly, Volume 47 [1903]
Download or read book Meredith Nicholson written by Ralph D. Gray and published by Indiana Historical Society. This book was released on 2007 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meredith Nicholson stands as the most Hoosier of all Indiana writers, serving as an outspoken advocate for his state. Indiana literary historian Arthur S. Shumaker called Nicholson the “most rabid” of Indiana’s major authors. In addition to writing such national best-sellers as Zelda Dameron and The House of a Thousand Candles, his best-known work, Nicholson won praise as an insightful essayist, with his work published in such national magazines as the Saturday Evening Post and Atlantic Monthly. "His inherent belief in democracy and democratic values, and his unapologetic patriotism permeate his essays," notes Gray, "some of which excoriated the Ku Klux Klan and upheld the rights and virtues of women, attitudes not always popular at the time."

Download or read book Dictionary of Midwestern Literature Volume 1 written by Philip A. Greasley and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2001-05-30 with total page 980 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dictionary of Midwestern Literature, Volume One, surveys the lives and writings of nearly 400 Midwestern authors and identifies some of the most important criticism of their writings. The Dictionary is based on the belief that the literature of any region simultaneously captures the experience and influences the worldview of its people, reflecting as well as shaping the evolving sense of individual and collective identity, meaning, and values. Volume One presents individual lives and literary orientations and offers a broad survey of the Midwestern experience as expressed by its many diverse peoples over time.Philip A. Greasley's introduction fills in background information and describes the philosophy, focus, methodology, content, and layout of entries, as well as criteria for their inclusion. An extended lead-essay, "The Origins and Development of the Literature of the Midwest," by David D. Anderson, provides a historical, cultural, and literary context in which the lives and writings of individual authors can be considered.This volume is the first of an ambitious three-volume series sponsored by the Society for the Study of Midwestern Literature and created by its members. Volume Two will provide similar coverage of non-author entries, such as sites, centers, movements, influences, themes, and genres. Volume Three will be a literary history of the Midwest. One goal of the series is to build understanding of the nature, importance, and influence of Midwestern writers and literature. Another is to provide information on writers from the early years of the Midwestern experience, as well as those now emerging, who are typically absent from existing reference works.
