Artistic Rebirth and the images of androgyny
in Willa Cather's The Song of the Lark
Abstract.
In the tablelands and gorges of ``Panther Canyon" in Arizona
where Thea Kronborg achieves her (re)birth as an artist, the
American critic Ellen Moers has seen the ``most thoroughly
elaborated feminine landscape in literature," a statement much
rehashed by all later feminist critics.
This article proposes a rereading of the geography of Panther
Canyon which includes its many obvious male elements and
concludes on the images of androgyny that characterize Thea.
