This volume presents a complex portrait of the United States of
America grappling with the trials of national adolescence. Topics
include (but are not limited to): the dynamics of language and
power, the treachery of memory, the lived experience of racial and
economic inequality, the aesthetics of Indigeneity, the radical
possibilities of disability, the fluidity of gender and sexuality,
the depth and culture-making power of literary genre, the history
of poetics, the cult of performance, and the hidden costs of
foodways. Taken together, the essays offer a vision of a vibrant,
contradictory, and conflicted early US Republic resistant to
consensus accountings and poised to inform new and better origin
stories for the polity to come.
