The Encyclopedia of Frontier Literature surveys 400 years of North
American frontier literature. Within this literary context, the
roles of women and minorities are given special attention, as is
the expansion of the American West. The sheer scope of frontier
literature is striking; this genre belongs as much to Henry
Wadsworth Longfellow and James Fenimore Cooper as it does to Willa
Cather and Jessamyn West. From novels, short stories, and poetry to
theater, oratory, outdoor dramas, songs, biographies, diaries,
journals, and logbooks, frontier literature is characterized and
unified by its rich expression of human experience. In the 94
alphabetized entries in this volume, readers will find dozens of
authors and hundreds of works represented, as well as biographies,
key concepts, terms, geographic locations, literary motifs, and
dominant themes, including Explorers of the Frontier, Law and
Order, Native Americans in Literature, Naturalists, and Poetry of
the Frontier.
