Irving is the first belletrist in American
literature, writing for pleasure at a time when writing was practical and for useful purposes. He is the first American literary humorist. He has written the first modern short stories. He is the first to write history and biography as entertainment. He introduced the nonfiction prose as a literary genre. His use of the gothic looks forward to Poe.
Rip Van Winkle is a short story by Washington Irving published in 1819, as well as the name of the story's fictional protagonist. It was part of a collection of stories entitled The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon. The story has become a part of cultural mythology: even for those who have never read the original story, "Rip Van Winkle" means either a person who sleeps for a long period of time, or one who is inexplicably (perhaps even blissfully) unaware of current events.

[1]小说的艺术价值是通过叙述方式的使用来实现的,它因此也决定了小说故事情节的质量。

他的小说隐含了深层的历史含义和鲜明的价值取向,具有浓郁的浪漫主义色彩和朴素的现实主义风格,并以新颖的题材、深刻的主题、独特的叙事艺术以及鲜明的人物形象,体现出文学史料价值,开拓了美国文学新视野。

如小说《掘金者》中《鬼门关》部分就是充满魔幻色彩的故事。
故事叙述了曼哈托人居住的城市六英里外的海湾有一条狭窄的海峡,环境极为险峻。
Washington-Irving剖析

1. short story
A prose narrative that is brief in nature
It also has many of the same characteristics of a novel including characters, setting and plot.
When he was 19, he published his “Jonathan Oldstyle” satires of New York life.
When he was 23, he was admitted to the New York bar. And his older brothers financed his tour of France and Italy.
However, due to length constraints, these characteristics and devices generally may not be as fully developed or as complex as those developed for a full-length novel. The short story usually deals with a single episode and often a single character.
The Van Tassel stronghold was situated on the banks of the Hudson, in one of those green, sheltered, fertile nooks in which the Dutch farmers are so fond of nestling. A great elm tree spread its broad branches over it, at the foot of which bubbled up a spring of the softest and sweetest water. Hard by the farmhouse was a vast barn, every window and crevice of which seemed bursting forth with the treasures of the farm. Rows of pigeons were enjoying the sunshine on the roof. Sleek unwieldy porkers were grunting in the repose and abundance of their pens. A stately squadron of snowy geese were riding in an adjoining pond, convoying whole fleets of ducks; regiments of turkeys were gobbling through the farmyard.
