Abstract
yoknapatawpha is a fictional county created by William Faulkner that represents the evolution of the United States. It shows the development of the nation, from a traditional system defined by a patriarchal structure and that is deeply related to the rural environment, to a modern society whose socioeconomic system is close to the capitalism. The faulknerian literature will use the most relevant events of the American history to recreate a community whose economic system has been strongly influenced by the Civil War, the World War I and the World War II. These struggles are faulknerian literary elements that prove that his fictional southern community evolves in parallel to the American nation.Downloads
