초록

This paper aims to study the literary relation between American writer, John Steinbeck’s late two works, Travels with Charley in Search of America and America and Americans and works of Joseph Addison, a British writer in eighteenth century, in The Spectator. Steinbeck’s Travels with Charley is a travelogue to search for his country on a personal level and America and Americans is a collection of John Steinbeck's journalism, including the title piece. Steinbeck observed and commented on what he saw around him in America in these books. Perhaps his observation is likely to be influenced by Joseph Addison’s style. Joseph Addison is an English essayist, poet, and dramatist who was a leading contributor to and guiding spirit of the periodicals The Spectator. Steinbeck himself said that “Only through imitation do we develop toward originality.” Steinbeck’s access method appears in his style and wit, a national identity and nature and human nature through The Spectator. Therefore, these sensibilities Steinbeck shares along with Addison mark and echo of his style and wit. Through this method, Steinbeck tried to recover his own originality, acknowledging that he must find his literary basis in imitation.
