Download or read book Periods of American Literature written by Rakesh Rathod and published by Nitya Publications. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of American literature stretches across more than 400 years. It can be divided into five major periods, each of which has unique characteristics, notable authors, and representative works. It started with the Colonial and Early National Period (17th century to 1830) which was the earliest American literature i.e. practical, straightforward, often derivative of literature in Great Britain, and focused on the future. Second is Romantic period (1830 to 1870), next is Realism and Naturalism (1870 to 1910); The Modernist Period (1910 to 1945) and last is the Contemporary Period (1945 to present). I particularly tried to give brief introduction with specific characteristics and type of work of each period in this book.

Book Romanticism and Colonial Disease

Download or read book Romanticism and Colonial Disease written by Alan Bewell and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2003-05-22 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonial experience was profoundly structured by disease, as expansion brought people into contact with new and deadly maladies. Pathogens were exchanged on a scale far greater than ever before. Native populations were decimated by wave after wave of Old World diseases. In turn, colonists suffered disease and mortality rates much higher than in their home countries. Not only disease, but the idea of disease, and the response to it, deeply affected both colonizers and those colonized. In Romanticism and Colonial Disease, Alan Bewell focuses on the British response to colonial disease as medical and literary writers, in a period roughly from the end of the eighteenth century to the middle of the nineteenth century, grappled to understand this new world of disease. Bewell finds this literature characterized by increasing anxiety about the global dimensions of disease and the epidemiological cost of empire. Colonialism infiltrated the heart of Romantic literature, affecting not only the Romantics' framing of disease but also their understanding of England's position in the colonial world. The first major study of the massive impact of colonial disease on British culture during the Romantic period, Romanticism and Colonial Disease charts the emergence of the idea of the colonial world as a pathogenic space in need of a cure, and examines the role of disease in the making and unmaking of national identities.

Download or read book The American Aeneas written by John C. Shields and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 2004-11 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Choice Magazine Outstanding Academic Book?? "John Shields's book is a provocative challenge to the venerable Adamic myth so exhaustively deployed in examinations of early American literature and in American studies. Moreover, The American Aeneas builds wonderfully on Shields's considerable work on Phillis Wheatley. "?--American Literature?? "The American Aeneas should be of interest to classicists and American studies scholars alike." ?--The New England Quarterly?? John Shields exposes a significant cultural blindness within American consciousness. Noting the biblical character Adam as an archetype who has long dominated ideas of what it means to be American, Shields argues that an equally important component of our nation's cultural identity--a secular one deriving from the classical tradition--has been seriously neglected.??Shields shows how Adam and Aeneas--Vergil's hero of the Aeneid-- in crossing over to American from Europe, dynamically intermingled in the thought of the earliest American writers. Shields argues that uncovering and acknowledging the classical roots of our culture can allay the American fear of "pastlessness" that the long-standing emphasis on the Adamic myth has generated. John C. Shields is the editor of The Collected Works of Phillis Wheatley and the author of The American Aeneas: Classical Origins of the American Self, which won a Choice Outstanding Academic Book award and an honorable mention in the Harry Levin Prize competition, sponsored by the American Comparative Literature Association.
