As a study of My Antonia and succeeding novels in the light of Willa Cather's "land-philosophy" reveals, 0 Pioneers! repre­ sents an important but obviously partial enlbodiment of her full artistic vision. Granted, in 0 Pioneers! the land actually figures as a character, contributing to the action of the novel. But while depending as much as ever on the land as a vehicle for convey­ ing her vision in succeeding novels, Miss Cather progressively achieves a certain physical detachment from that land, along with a corresponding enlargement of her discernment. She ex­ plores and illumines the areas of the family, mechanization, art, learning and religion in the light of her inclusive "land­ philosophy," at the same time that she stands, feet firmly planted, in the world of the five senses. In fine, she immerses her readers in visible, tangible reality, awakens them to the transcendent, reveals their inextricable inter-connection, and, in The Professor's House and Death Comes for the Archbishop, advances through the subtleties and complexities of life's materials to a hard-won, convincing artistic vision.

  • The Trouble with Paradise: Exploring Communities of Difference in Three American Novels
    The Trouble With Paradise: Exploring Communities of Difference in Three American Novels by Blair Nosan The Trouble With Paradise: Exploring Communities of Difference in Three American Novels by Blair Nosan A thesis presented for the B. A. degree with Honors in The Department of English University of Michigan Spring 2008 © March 17, 2008 Blair Elizabeth Nosan Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor, Anne Herrmann, for her discerning eye and her vital input throughout this writing process. Scotti Parrish for her encouragement and willingness to devote time and concern to the entire thesis cohort. Her support has been indispensable. And Megan Sweeney for her inspiration, and her suggestion of resources—including two of the three novels I have analyzed as primary sources. I am indebted to Eileen Pollack, who was willing to meet with me and provide a personal interview, which was central to my analysis of her work. I have also benefited from the support of my roommates, Peter Schottenfels, Jacob Nathan, and Anna Bernstein, who have provided me with a respite, which was often greatly needed. To my friend Claire Smith who edited this essay in its entirety, and to Nicole Cohen, the 2008 honors cohort, and my sister Loren: these individuals devoted their time and effort to my project and I am very grateful. Finally, I want to thank my family, who not only supported my decision to remain at university for an extra year in order to pursue this very thesis, but also for providing me with emotional guidance throughout this rollercoaster of an experience.

It has doubled as New York City in “The Fighting Temptations,” “Sweet Home Alabama,” and in the television pilot for “October Road.” The Westin Peachtree Plaza Hotel’s Sundial Restaurant was featured in “Sharky’s Machine,” and the hotel also became known for the location of a record setting stunt.

The Chuck Norris film “Invasion USA” also shot huge action sequences on the streets of downtown Atlanta. The Fairlie Poplar historic area in downtown Atlanta was used for scenes in “The Real McCoy,” starring Kim Basinger.
