Autorenporträt
Michael J. Colacurcio received his AB (1958) in Philosophy and MA (1959) in English from Xavier University in Cincinnati; taking his Ph.D. (1963) at the University of Illinois, he began teaching American Literature at Cornell University, winning a distinguished teaching award in 1974. Following a series of essays on classic American authors, he published his study of Hawthorne's early tales, The Province of Piety (1984). Moving to UCLA in 1985, he brought out Doctrine and Difference: Studies in the Literature of New England in l997 with Routledge. He received a teaching award in 2001 and was promoted to Distinguished Professor in 2002; he was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2007. Godly Letters: Studies in the Literature of the American Puritans appeared in 2006. Religion and its Reformation in America, an anthology of religious texts from 1600 to 1730, appeared in 2020-as did a two-volume critical study called Emerson and Other Minds. Forthcoming is a volume of Colacurcio's collected essays on Hawthorne called Hawthorne's Histories, Hawthorne's World and, in the planning stage, a monograph entitled Puritanism and American Literature.
