The Gilded Age and Dawn of the Modern: 1877-1919, a new title in
the six-title series History Through Literature: American Voices,
American Themes, provides insights and analysis regarding the
history, literature, and cultural climate of the Gilded Age and
early twentieth century. It brings together informational text and
primary documents that cover notable historic events and trends,
authors, literary works, social movements, and cultural and
artistic themes. The Gilded Age and Dawn of the Modern begins with
an interdisciplinary chronology that identifies, defines, and
places in context the notable historical events, literary works,
authors' lives, and cultural landmarks of the period. This is
followed by a comprehensive overview essay that summarizes the
era's major historical trends, social movements, cultural and
artistic themes, literary voices, and enduring works as reflections
of each other and the spirit of the times. The core content
comprises 20-30 articles on representative writers of the period,
along with excerpts from essential literary works that highlight a
historical theme, sociocultural movement, or the confluence of the
two. These excerpts serve the Common Core emphasis on
"informational texts from a broad range of cultures and periods",
including "stories, drama, poetry, and literary nonfiction".
