This book contains thirteen original essays about Puritan culture
in colonial New England. Prompted by the growing interest in
secular studies, as well as postnational, transnational, and
postcolonial critique in the humanities, American Literature and
the New Puritan Studies seeks to represent and advance contemporary
interest in a field long recognized, however problematically, as
foundational to the study of American literature. It invites
readers of American literature and culture to reconsider the role
of seventeenth-century Puritanism in the creation of the United
States of America and its consequent cultural and literary
histories. It also records the significant transformation in the
field of Puritan studies that has taken place in the last quarter
century. In addition to re-reading well known texts of
seventeenth-century Puritan New England, the volume contains essays
focused on unknown or lesser studied events and texts, as well as
new scholarship on post-Puritan archives, monuments, and
historiography.
