a cura di Giuseppe Nori EDITORI RIUNITI 1992 XVIII-373 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO, PER IL RESTO INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO America Puritana raccoglie una serie di saggi che mettono a fuoco il lavoro di uno dei critici più autorevoli del nostro tempo. Forse il maggior storico vivente della cultura americana. L'autore presenta per la prima volta al pubblico italiano una sintesi del suo contributo nel campo dell'immaginazione puritana e delle sue ramificazioni moderne. Revisionista e allo stesso tempo innovativa, la visione dell'autore sfocia in un'opera critica che va oltre l'ambito della storia culturale e letteraria, per abbracciare e fondere, in una sintesi che porta al culmine la migliore e più tipica tradizione degli "studi americani" antropologia e religione, storia del pensiero critico e ideologia.
