Which gave him a rich experience to learned about the art of the language.
"A rose to Emily" was published in the magazine BBS in April 1930. In the same year the 1930 Nobel Prize winner of the American writer Sinclair lewis in his speech he mentioned Faulkner, called him "the south from the sentimental liberated in the women's tears".
We can see the declining history of the southern aristocracy. It is full of ridiculous and weird atmosphere, make a person as if in a maze of terrorist, doubt, as the author of an unpredictable actions and the character of the novel reveals the inner world, gradually get a bit thinking clues. At the end of the plot, the character's image is suddenly clear. From this point of view, the novel is a part of the "york napa collapse law", which reflects Faulkner's creative thought and style.
The southern United States was a place where Puritan ideas were dominant, but after historical rationality of the die, the planter majesty and glory, such as running water out of a go back, but the remnants of the old ideal of afterglow tempted in alternating periods of history from the south, their spiritual world and the objective world, and man and the serious dislocation of The Times, always in a state of inner heart.

the Southern social philosophy is completely different of the North, holding an ideal of rural gentry and emphasizing a genteel, aristocratic lifestyle rather than one based on the earnest accumulation of money. 

In the period between the American Revolution and about 1830, even the North was strong condemnation of slavery spurred by the abolitionists, the white South insisted on "peculiar institution" of slavey. ]]> 2018-01-25 21:39:26 UTC https://padlet.com/centennialwilliamsc/mbao0351423r/wish/224886422 https://padlet.com/centennialwilliamsc/mbao0351423r/wish/224886908 The economy of the south consisted mostly of plantation.
