In close and radical readings of works by Ralph Waldo Emerson, Herman Melville, Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, Walt Whitman, Flannery O'Connor and Jonathan Edwards, Linda Munk locates the American sublime in the seemingly trivial: in small and common objects, in low and humble persons, and in what the philosopher Stanley Cavell has called the "ordinariness" of American language. Through its theological emphasis, this study elucidates many obscurities and seeks to modify the reader's sense of American literature.
