Bibliography
Jean-Paul Sartre. Time in Faulkner’s Novel: “Sound and Fury”. Changsha: Hunan People’s Publishing House, 1983.
Through the article, Sartre analyzed the literature perspectives and contributions by two great writers in American history. Sartre clearly stated the similarities and distinguishing features of two different writers through the same time. Hemingway used monosyllabic words that are lean, sample, spare, and was considered the master of dialogue. On the other hand, Faulkner developed literature with strong sense of emotion, and social criticism was always involved. I chose this article because it depicted two writers and offered us a better understanding of William Faulkner.

Through Cash’s article, Bible was described as the fetter of old social convention that control and limited peoples’ perception. Unequal treatment and injustice took place in South over and over again. Cash pointed out that Emily was as one of the representatives, suffered from social traditional convention and rightlessness of women. This article supported great research of the awful living condition occurred in South.
Frederick L Gwyin and Joseph Blotner. “Faulkner in the University”. Charlottesville: University of Virginia Press, 1959. 86
In Frederick and Joseph’s article, they argued the equal right and justice for slaves are needed initially. The slavery was without a doubt the major factor that strongly affected the society of South. In A Rose For Emily, Emily’s death was a symbol that presented conservative and old traditions, and indicated the same tragedy of lives in South would appear again. This article provides strong sense of emotion that a change in South is needed.
LI Wenjun, “A Collection of Comments on William Faulkner”. Beijing: China Social Sciences Pressing House, 1980. 46
Li Wenjun, as the most dedicated Chinese author and William Faulkner scholar, clearly declared the culture impact on William Faulkner. Through Faulkner’s experiences of US Army and World War 1, the Southern culture strongly affected William Faulkner. His experiences became the most important value that typically gave William Faulkner a sense of calm to discover South America. In addition, he could depict the decline and stance of the upper crust of Southern society, and develop his own critical perspectives on society. Also, he has inspired many authors and was considered as The Lamp of South. He published Oxford American, which offered more opportunities for other authors in South, and dedicated to the Southern literature. This article certainly helps clarify and admire values of culture, memories, and experiences to a writer.
