Exploring the influence of English literature on American literary identity, this book examines how English works shaped the cultural landscape of America from 1750 to 1850. It argues that American literature did not emerge in isolation but was significantly informed by its English predecessors, highlighting the interplay between the two literary traditions during a formative period in American history.
