Description:
-
Readings in Irving, Cooper, Poe, Emerson, Thoreau, Hawthorne, Melville, and Whitman. Lectures emphasize their varying attempts to reconcile "nature" with "civilization" and to grant expression to instinct, whim, and passion while preserving the traditions and institutions that hold society together. Various expressions of the nature/civilization conflict are considered: frontier/city, America/Europe, heart/head, natural law/social law, organic forms/traditional genres, and literary nationalism/the republic of letters.
