The International Faulkner
The International Faulkner

Summary/Abstract: For much of his writing career, William Faulkner was considered primarily if not exclusively a “Southern” writer, focusing on the characters, conflicts, and history unique to his native region, the American South, specifically Mississippi. In recent years, however, fueled by the translations of his major works into more than 40 languages, there has been a groundswell of interest in viewing Faulkner from an international rather than a regional perspective. This paper will examine several of Faulkner’s techniques and themes that validate a global approach to his works.
