THE IMAGE OF THE AMERICAN "SOUTHERN" WOMEN IN LITERARY WORKS FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF RUSSIAN AND ENGLAND-AMERICAN SLAVIC STUDIES
Abstract
The term «southern culture», accepted in American literary criticism, is a complex of ideas forming a special way of perception of the world and self southerners generating idea of the uniqueness and specificity of the southern character.
This term has gained a huge value for the development not only of women's literary works, but also in the development of national identity in general. The study of this concept and its genre- forming function in the women's creativity the first half of the XIX century in many ways helps to clarify the nature shaped modern American social ethics and culture concepts of "American family" and "US House", as well as deeper insight into the important phenomenon of national consciousness the so- called "American exclusiveness".
