Covering American literature from its pre-contact Indigenous
beginnings through the Reconstruction period, the first two volumes
of The Broadview Anthology of American Literature represent a
substantial reconceiving of the canon of early American literature.
Guided by the latest scholarship in American literary studies, and
deeply committed to inclusiveness, social responsibility, and
rigorous contextualization, the anthology balances representation
of widely agreed-upon major works with an emphasis on American
literature's diversity, variety, breadth, and connections with the
rest of the Americas. Highlights of Volumes A & B: Beginnings
to Reconstruction * Complete texts of Mary Rowlandson's captivity
narrative, The Coquette, Narrative of the Life of Frederick
Douglass, An American Slave; and Benito Cereno * In-depth, Contexts
sections on such topics as "Slavery and Resistance," "Print Culture
and Popular Literature," "Expansion, Native American Expulsion, and
Manifest Destiny," and "Gender and Sexuality" * Broader and more
extensive coverage of Indigenous oral and visual literature and
African American oral literature than in competing anthologies *
Full author sections in the anthology are devoted to authors such
as Anne Hutchinson, Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, Briton Hammon, Jane
Johnston Schoolcraft, Jose Maria Heredia, Black Hawk, and many
others This two-volume package is available in both print
(9781039301573) and digital (9781770488274) formats. If you are an
instructor ordering this package for course use, please provide
