Description: This lecture course will examine the work of American novelists as self-conscious renderings of the nation that could not find reasonable expression in genres like poetry and autobiography. The expansive nature of the novel lent itself early on to capture, represent, and reify the progressive discourses of history that turned New England Puritan theocracy into a secularized form of government, known as democracy.
