Description
Abstract After his trip to America in 1842, Dickens published American Notes and received extensive critical response. Investigating the generally negative reactions and the reasons for them allows late-twentieth-century readers a glimpse into Dickens' reputation in the early 1840s, the various constraints of that reputation and reader expectations, and more abstractly the ways in which critical commentary reveals much about the cultural milieu from which it emerges. Part of the critical dissatisfaction with American Notes comes from the methods that Dickens employs that, perhaps ironically, prefigure those celebrated by twentieth-century new journalists.
