Slantwise moves : games, literature, and social invention in nineteenth-century America
Individual, historically located games are as interesting for the particular limits they set as for the specific associative assemblages they enable. This book takes a case-study approach, looking intensively at popular mass-market games of the mid-nineteenth century not to answer what a game is but instead to ask what certain media do and how that doing might offer perspective on the literary questions we have directed at the period.
