Title | Literature of the American Renaissance, 1820-1860 |
Description | Close study of nine authors--the so-called literary "renaissance" of the new republic--who defined a native brand of literature that would influence all subsequent American writers. Our focus will be on narrative and poetic forms that signaled independence from older ideals, offering an exhilarating yet deeply unsettling transition in literary history. |
