A stage of adolescence : American literature and culture in the 1920s and 1930s

الملخص EN

This paper argues that the decades of the twenties and thirties can be considered as a period of "adolescence" in the development of American literature and culture.

In particular, this study examines the works of some American writers of these two decades (such as Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Faulkner, Steinbeck, Frost, Cumrnings, Stevens, Williams and others) to note how the works of these authors reflect and, to some extent, influence this developmental "stage."
