{"product_id":"reinventing-the-feature-story-stephanie-shapiro-9781934074060","title":"Reinventing the Feature Story: Mythic Cycles in American Literary Journalism","description":"Although literary journalism is now widely accepted as an integral part of all American prose literature, there has been scant examination of its underlying themes, which have remained constant even as the literature itself has evolved. By looking at literary journalism as narrative - the artifact of myth - its cultural power and history are revealed. As a vehicle of myth, literary journalism's growth corresponds to the progression of myth through its primary, romantic and consummatory stages. Each stage of literary journalism is a tool for converting readers through sensational example to the moral values and social obligations of a particular myth stage. Each stage of myth creates the need for the subsequent stage in a continual literary cycle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephanie Shapiro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1934074063\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781934074060\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Apprentice House\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.30d","brand":"Stephanie Shapiro","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486378471679,"sku":"9781934074060","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_24fe9481-474b-4233-94ee-2763dcbb61ce.jpg?v=1778055162","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reinventing-the-feature-story-stephanie-shapiro-9781934074060","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
