PENROD AND SAM During the daylight hours of several autumn Saturdays there had been severe outbreaks of cavalry in the Schofield neighbourhood. The sabres were of wood; the steeds were imaginary, and both were employed in a game called "bonded pris'ner" by its inventors, Masters Penrod Schofield and Samuel Williams. The pastime was not intricate. When two enemies met, they fenced spectacularly until the person of one or the other was touched by the opposing weapon; then, when the ensuing claims of foul play had been disallowed and the subsequent argument settled, the combatant touched was considered to be a prisoner until such time as he might be touched by the hilt of a sword belonging to one of his own party, which effected his release and restored to him the full enjoyment of hostile activity.

TABLE OF CONTENTS Page INTRODUCTION..................................... 1 Chapter I....................................... 26 Chapter II....................................... 82 Chapter III.............................. 137 Chapter IV....................................... 203 Bibliography..................................... 233 I INTRODUCTION The novels of Louisa May Alcott shed a great deal of light on the complex plight of the American family in the Gilded Age. It is generally accepted by social historians and sociologists that the beginnings of the erosion of the American family as a tightly-knit unit exerting consider­ able influence on the mores of society began with the 1870s. Parallel with this working hypothesis is the supporting literary evidence in the American novel. With the excep­ tion of the sentimental and sensational novels prior to Realism, the American novel generally did not center around a family situation or around American social behavior.

  • Penrod Part 1
    by Booth Tarkington Part 1 Booth Tarkington Booth Tarkington (1869-1946) , American playwright and author, won the Pulitzer Prize in 1919 for his novel The Magnificent Ambersons (1918) and again in 1922 for Alice Adams (1921), later adapted to the screen starring Katherine Hepburn. Exploring the realms of middle-class, middle-America, romantic illusions and the power and corruption of wealth, Tarkington became a leading voice of his times through his memorable characters and social commentary in his novels and plays. Praised by the father of American realism William Dean Howells , Tarkington's Growth Trilogy, based on America's Industrial Expansionism started with The Turmoil (1915), then The Magnificent Ambersons , followed by The Midlander (1924). Dozens of his works were adapted to the stage and screen during his lifetime and as recently as 2002. Newton Booth Tarkington was born 29 July 1869 in Indianapolis, Indiana, the son of Elizabeth and John Stevenson Tarkington, a lawyer and judge. He first attended Purdue University in Lafayette, Indiana, then Princeton in New Jersey where he was editor of the Nassau Literary Magazine . Ever the raconteur, he was immensely popular at school, and later earned an honorary Doctor of Letters in 1918. After having started writing at a very early age short stories and plays, he always knew he wanted to be a writer 1 and upon finishing school put pen to paper in earnest. Not disheartened by numerous rejections, Tarkington's persistence would soon pay off. His first novel The Gentleman from Indiana was published in 1899, followed by his historical romance Monsieur Beaucaire in 1900, which would later be adapted to the screen starring Rudolph Valentino.
