42. The Walker Percy Project Essay on the postSouthern Renaissance author and the themes of Southern writing in general. http://www.ibiblio.org/wpercy/makowsky.html

Walker Percy and Southern Literature Veronica Makowsky Written for THE WALKER PERCY PROJECT (1996); Makowsky is the author of a number of books, including Caroline Gordon: A Biography (Oxford University Press, 1989); she is Professor of English at the University of Connecticut. "I DON'T LIKE TO BE DESCRIBED as a Southern writer," declared Walker Percy in a 1989 interview. "The danger is, if you're described as a Southern writer, you might be thought of as someone who writes about a picturesque local scene like Uncle Tom's Cabin Gone With the Wind , something like that." ( More Conversations , 223). Percy frequently attempted to evade the danger of being labeled a "Southern writer" by stressing the more existentialist aspects of his work, but his fiction nonetheless remains very much a part of the Southern literary heritage. Southern literature, except for Faulkner, has largely been ignored in traditional American literature books and courses which privilege Northeastern American literary history, leading to the fear of being labeled a "Southern writer" that many Southern authors exhibit. Part I of this essay will briefly delineate the history and themes of Southern literature in order to reveal Percy's connections to his native literature in Part II. What is Southern Literature?
