註釋

Joyce Carol Oates's short stories demarcate her position as an author straddling the realms of a passé literary tradition and of modern innovation. Oates stresses the importance of contemporizing conventional devices and genres rather than breaking with tradition. An in-depth discussion of her «re-imaginings» of classic short stories, her transformation of specific short story genres, and her construction of «cycles» as a means of expanding the dimensions of the short story demonstrates the influence of literary precursors and her own autonomous aesthetic.
