Burying the “Fallen Monument”: The Death of the Old South in “A Rose for Emily”

William Faulkner was an author obsessed with the interconnection between past, present, and future in the American South. Dr Honeini’s lecture will propose that Faulkner’s “A Rose for Emily” (1930) stages a conflict between two distinct, opposing generations: the new, industrialising modern South and the old, moribund aristocracy of the antebellum period.
