Something complete and great: the centennial study of My Antonia

This volume situates 'My Antonia' as a novel that stands the test of time by including in its pages an extraordinarily wide range of historical, cultural, literary, psychological, thematic, perceptual and stylistic issues.

The volume provides an analysis and assessment of complexities in the novel as well as its reception and legacy.

The essays as a whole situate the novel at the cusp of the modern period, marking in myriad ways the novel's transitional role between 19th and 20th-century literature and culture.
