The American Scene considers major texts of nineteenth century
American literature: The Leatherstocking Tales, Poe's fiction, The
Scarlet Letter, Moby-Dick, Leaves of Grass, Dickinson's poetry,
Huckleberry Finn, James's The American Scene. It sees these works
as attempts to articulate relationships between the self and the
New World. The indeterminacy of the relationships is expressed in
the formal instability of the works themselves. In these respects,
nineteenth century American literature is shown to offer a striking
contrast to comparable English literature.
