Описание: Nineteenth-century American literature is often divided into two asymmetrical halves, neatly separated by the Civil War. Focusing on the later writings of Walt Whitman, Frederick Douglass, Herman Melville, and Emily Dickinson, this book shows how the war took shape across the nineteenth century, inflecting literary forms for decades after 1865.
Описание: This book asks about the cultural and political meanings of spiritualism in the Nineteenth century United States.

Описание: In this publication, Dana Brand traces the origin of the flaneur, a detached and powerful urban spectator, to seventeenth-century English literature and to nineteenth-century American literature.

Описание: Examining the literary history of racial and national identity in nineteenth-century America, Kerkering tells the story of how poetry helped define America as a nation before helping to define America into distinct racial categories. Through formal literary effects, national and racial identities become related elements of a single literary history.
Описание: Theo Davis offers a fresh account of the emergence of a national literature in the United States. She analyses how American authors` prose seeks to create an art of abstract experience and reconsiders the place of form in literary studies today.
Описание: New scientific discoveries about the nerves inspired writers like Hawthorne and Beecher Stowe to re-imagine the role of the self amidst political, social and religious tumults, including debates about slavery and the revivals of the Second Great Awakening.

Описание: Moving boldly between literary analysis and political theory, contemporary and antebellum US culture, in this 2006 book Arthur Riss invites readers to rethink prevailing accounts of the relationship between slavery, liberalism, and literary representation. This revisionary argument promises to be unsettling for literary critics, political philosophers, and historians of US slavery.
