Faulkner, Modernism, and the Discourse of Racism in Intruder in the Dust

http://www.uhb.fr/faulkner/resources/articles/matthews.html

"By doing no more than naming this double predicament of outmodedness, I wish to suggest the rationale for a deconstructuve approach to the late modernist Intruder in the Dust. My objectiveinvolves relating the comparable fates of two major European influences on American literary practice: modernism and post-structuralism. Both carried within themselves the urge to dismantle, disfigure, and refigure expressive as well as social forms, and both suffered repulsion by the counter-thrust of an apolitical, liberal democratic individualism."
