This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picturesque Literature and the Transformation of the American Landcape, 1835-1874 recovers the central role that the picturesque, a popular mode of scenery appreciation that advocated for an improved and manipulated natural landscape, played in the social, spatial, and literary history of mid-nineteenth century America. It argues that the picturesque was not simply a landscape aesthetic, but also a discipline of seeing and imaginatively shaping the natural that was widely embraced by bourgeois Americans to transform the national landscape in their own image. Through the picturesque, mid-century bourgeois Americans remade rural spaces into tourist scenery, celebrated the city streets as spaces of cultural diversity, created new urban public parks, and made suburban domesticity a national ideal. This picturesque transformation was promoted in a variety of popular literary genres, all focused on landscape description and all of which trained readers into the protocols of picturesque visual discipline as social reform. Many of these genres have since been dubbed "minor" or have been forgotten by our literary history, but the ranks of the writers of this picturesque literature include everyone from the most canonical (Hawthorne, Melville, Thoreau, Emerson, and Poe), to major authors of the period now less familiar (such as Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Lydia Maria Child, Nathaniel Parker Willis, and Margaret Fuller), to those now completely forgotten. Individual chapters of the book link picturesque literary genres to the spaces that the genres helped to transform and, in the process, create what is recognizably our modern American landscape.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bi-Centennial Celebration of the Settlement of Litchfield, Connecticut, August 1-4, 1920: Compiled for the Litchfield Historical Society As authorized by Special Act of the Connecticut Legislature an appropriation of Five Thousand Dollars was made from the town treasury to defray the general expenses of the cele bration and every permanent and Summer resident entered heartily into the spirit of the occasion. The public and mercantile buildings, and with scarcely an exception, the houses in the Borough were profusely deco rated. The display of ags was remarkable, many rare ban ners and emblems of national and political character being shown. The facade of the Beckwith house on South Street was nearly covered with thirteen different flags, each one connected with some phase of American history, including sevo eral of the original colonies, the famous Rattlesnake emblem, early Revolutionary banners and a Civil War flag that was under fire at Fort Sumter, while on the Seymour homestead next door was a large and beautiful flag of the Order of the Cincinnati.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the most prominent families of the American Revolution proudly hailed from Connecticut. Committed to the pursuit of freedom, men like Major General David Wooster led troops into battle, while Samuel Huntington and others risked it all by signing the Declaration of Independence. Women might have stayed at home, but they played a vital part by producing goods for soldiers while also taking care of their property and children. In the wake of war, Sarah Pierce started the Litchfield Female Academy and taught proteges like Harriet Beecher Stowe. Family members often enlisted alongside one another. Elijah and David Humphreys were two such brothers who proudly served in the war together. From the Burrs to the Wolcotts, author Mark Allen Baker reveals what life was like for Connecticut families during the Revolutionary War.
