American Literature
AMERICAN LITERATURE!
"For we must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill, the eyes of all people are upon us."
What is America? Who is American? What is the American Dream?

We will study literature and history that includes the Native American Oral tradition, Puritan literature and beliefs, Revolutionary documents, American Romanticism and Modernism and some contemporary American authors.
