Teaching the Works of Eudora Welty

Too often Eudora Welty is known to the general public as Miss Welty, a ""perfect lady"" who wrote affectionate portraits of her home region. Yet recent scholarship has amply demonstrated a richer complexity. The essays collected in Teaching the Works of Eudora Welty seek to move Welty beyond a discussion of region and reflect new scholarship that remaps her work onto a larger canvas.
