Description

Explore the deep connection between nineteenth-century American literature and the natural world. In this study, Kyhl Lyndgaard examines how captivity narratives shaped land-use policy and environmental attitudes during a formative era in United States history. By analyzing these accounts, the text reveals how ethnicity, landscape, and authorship work together to shape cultural perspectives. This work offers a fresh look at environmental literature. Instead of viewing nature as a place for a temporary retreat, Lyndgaard presents an understanding of nature as a home. Through a close examination of three specific narratives from the 1820s and 1830s, including A Narrative of the Life of Mrs. Mary Jemison, readers gain insight into the complex relationships between people and their surroundings. This book is an essential resource for those studying American history, literature, and the evolving relationship between human society and the environment.
