First published between 1982 and 1983, this series examines the
peculiarly American cultural context out of which the nation's
literature has developed. Covering the years from 1620 to 1830,
this first volume of American Literature in Context examines a
range of texts from the writings of the Puritan settlers through
the declaration of Independence to the novels of Fenimore Cooper.
In doing so, it shows how early Americans thought about their
growing nation, their arguments for immigration, for political and
cultural independence, and the doubts they experienced in this
ambitious project. This book will be of interest to those studying
American literature and American studies.
