Cracking the codes : a textual and editorial examination of John Fante's literature
"After many years of neglect, American novelist and short-story writer John Fante is beginning to attract scholarly attention. In the current critical field there is an absence of textual and editorial criticism that needs to be redressed. It is important for Fante criticism to acknowledge the fact that Black Sparrow Press has not only republished Fante, but has re-invented him. Following the example of textual and editorial critics such as Lawrence S. Rainey, Jerome McGann, and George Bornstein, I address Black Sparrow's influence on the institutional, bibliographic, and linguistic codes of the Black Sparrow editions of Fante's work. By focussing on textual and editorial issues, I open up new areas of critical assessment---such as Black Sparrow's influence on critical and popular receptions of Fante. This critical approach allows for a more precise and complete critical understanding of Fante's work." --
