Book excerpt: Excerpt from A List of Early American Imprints Belonging to the Library of the Massachusetts Historical Society: With an Introduction and Notes This was reprinted (1889) in fac-simile, by order of the City Council of Boston, under the supervision of our associate, Wil liam H. Whitmore, Esq., Record Commissioner. The title is copied from the reprint as given on page 119 of that work. The Doctrine I of Godliness [a Catechism by John Norton]. 16mo. Pp. 3 - 22. Titlepage wanting; 3-22, The Doctrine I of Godliness; has a border line of ten pieces at the top of page 3, and an ornamented initial letter W at the beginning. Rev. Thomas Prince, in his Catalogue, says that this tract by Norton was printed first in the year 1660, and again in 1666. Dr. Felt, in his History of Ipswich, by inference refers the date of publication to 1664. This title is given in Dr. Haven's supplementary list under 1660 and 1666.

More than 200 images accompany the entries, making the work even more valuable for understanding the terms described.

Download or read book American Environmental Fiction, 1782–1847 written by Matthew Wynn Sivils and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau are often credited with inventing American environmental writing, Matthew Wynn Sivils argues that the works of these Transcendentalists must be placed within a larger literary tradition that has its origins in early Republic natural histories, Indian captivity narratives, Gothic novels, and juvenile literature. Authors such as William Bartram, Ann Eliza Bleecker, and Samuel Griswold Goodrich, to name just a few, enabled the development of a credibly American brand of proto-environmental fiction. Sivils argues that these seeds of environmental literature would come to fruition in James Fenimore Cooper’s The Pioneers, which he argues is the first uniquely environmental American novel. He then connects the biogeographical politics of Cooper’s The Prairie with European anti-Americanism; and concludes this study by examining how James Kirke Paulding, Thomas Cole, and James Fenimore Cooper imaginatively addressed the problem of human culpability and nationalistic cohesiveness in the face of natural disasters. With their focus on the character and implications of the imagined American landscape, these key works of early environmental thought contributed to the growing influence of the natural environment on the identity of the fledgling nation decades before the influences of Emerson's Nature and Thoreau's Walden.

Download or read book Quixotic Fictions of the USA 1792-1815 written by Sarah F. Wood and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2005-11-03 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quixotic Fictions of the USA 1792-1815 explores the conflicted and conflicting interpretations of Don Quixote available to and deployed by disenchanted writers of America's new republic. It argues that the legacy of Don Quixote provided an ambiguous cultural icon and ironic narrative stance that enabled authors to critique with impunity the ideological fictions shoring up their fractured republic. Close readings of works such as Modern Chivalry, Female Quixotism, and The Algerine Captive reveal that the fiction from this period repeatedly engaged with Cervantes's narrative in order to test competing interpretations of republicanism, to interrogate the new republic's multivalent crises of authority, and to question both the possibility and the desirability of an isolationist USA and an autonomous 'American' literature. Sarah Wood's study is the first book-length publication to examine the role of Don Quixote in early American literature. Exploring the extent to which the literary culture of North America was shaped by a diverse range of influences, it addresses an issue of growing concern to scholars of American history and literature. Quixotic Fictions reaffirms the global reach of Cervantes's influence and explores the complex, contradictory ways in which Don Quixote helped shape American fiction at a formative moment in its development.
