Abstract:
Revised from an address in Santa Cruz (2002) commemorating the John Steinbeck centennial, this essay focuses on Steinbeck's views on race and class as expressed in his writings on agricultural labor in California, especially In Dubious Battle and The Grapes of Wrath. Grapes of Wrath, which played an important part in rallying support for the New Deal program of Social Security, is described as a "supreme portrayal of Great Depression America" and Steinbeck's finest novel. Steinbeck's work is linked to that of his predecessor, Edward Bellamy, author of Looking Backward. Both writers are present

Abstract:
“Steinbeck, like liberation theologians, recognizes that corporate sin must yield to some form of grace that transcends individuals. The great owners and bankers are caught in the sinful system just as tightly as the migrants. What the novel [The Grapes of Wrath] suggests, and what the liberationists assert, is that change in the system will be in the direction of justice only if it comes from the bottom up rather than from the top down.”

Abstract:
AbstractJohn Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath has been read typically as period social activism, as sentimental Marxist fable, and as watered-down Christian theology via its failed preacher, Jim Casy. Religious interpretations have at best seen the text as an allegorical reenactment of Exodus. Yet such criticism requires a willful misreading of the text, as the Joads end the story not in a promised land but destitute. The novel makes more sense, however, if seen as a reversal of Exodus. The Joads progress from a despoiled but occupied promised land (Oklahoma) toward bondage in Egypt (California

This essay takes a literary journey to Jack London State Historic Park, the National Steinbeck Center, and the Beat Museum. An exploration of the shrines that are devoted to writers and which attract readers from around the world as well as close to home, the essay explores California’s identity as a cultural destination for tourists as well as for natives of the Golden State.

Abstract:
Abstract In the wake of the so-called postmodernist turn in literary studies and criticism, Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath has been subjected to a major interpretative revision that has reoriented the focus solely on the chapters dealing with the Joads while leaving out those that provide a detailed analysis of larger socioeconomic forces at work. The latter are laid out in documentary interchapters that constitute the backbone of dialectical montage, a narrative method used by Steinbeck to create a consciousness-raising novel. Documentary interchapters, as this paper argues, shed light on th

Near the beginning of his classic depression-era novel, The Grapes of Wrath, John Steinbeck introduces the Reverend Jim Casy, a “Burning Busher” who “used to . . . get the people jumpin' an' talking' in tongues, an' glory-shoutin' till they just fell down and passed out.” But now Casy has given up preaching. “The sperit ain't in the people much no more;” Casy tells his friend Tom Joad, “and worse'n that, the sperit ain't in me no more.” Throughout the novel, Steinbeck underscores the crisis of religious meaning in the face of financial catastrophes confronting families like the Joads—share cro
