Timothy Morris examines the cultural implications of baseball novels, focusing on four themes - assimilation, heterosexuality, language, and meritocracy - from among many possibilities "because they are particularly problematic issues for America and Americanists in the mid-1990s." While Making the Team deals with canonical works such as The Natural and Bang the Drum Slowly, it devotes equal attention to juvenile novels by John Tunis (The Kid from Tomkinsville, Young Razzle) and others. Throughout, Morris considers how the ideals of manliness, courage, competitiveness, athleticism, whiteness, and standard English - of "Americanness" in its many facets - have been embodied in fictional characters for readers of different ages and in different eras. He concludes with a chapter that asks, "What does it mean to be 'literary'?" What distinguishes "high art" from a baseball novel, or a mystery, or a romance novel, or pornography? Making the Team suggests that drawing the line may be a more vital concern - not just for scholars, but for Americans at large - than anything critics have argued about for a very long time.

Making the Team

Associate Professor of Organisational Behaviour Timothy Morris

The legend of the Stormhammer is one of Vosteros' oldest tales. It goes back to before the first Cataclysm and stretches past the Collision of Worlds. It is a legend that started a long time ago amongst the Subarii; Vosteros' most proud clan of warriors. As time passed, the legend, as most legends do, slipped into fable and folklore, a quaint story told to children to keep them on the right path. It isn't until after the Collision that all of Vosteros is reminded that all legends originate in truth. The Ballad of Bayan Stormhammer is the story of the legend's focal piece, the one who would grow to simply be known as "The Stormhammer." A child born in war with a mission of enforcing peace.
