It focuses on gender, biblical politics, Revolutionary discourses and racial, sectional, and religious identities, as these contend and negotiate with each other in the shaping of a pluralist democratic polity. Nineteenth-century American poetry, far from being the self-reflective art object of twentieth-century aesthetic theory, offers a rhetorical arena in which civic, economic, and religious trends intersect with each other in mutual definition and investigation. Poetry emerges as a core impulse in the formation of American identity and cultural definition"-- Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 19th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Literature and society $z United States $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a National characteristics, American, in literature. 650 0 $a Public opinion in literature. 830 0 $a Nineteenth-century major lives and letters. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180131034255.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160825071812.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20140715010546.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C3EA56B008E211E099B94BC96AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
