Description

This scholarly study examines how early American orientalist tales reflected the nation's complex identity during rapid social and economic transformation. Drawing on energy humanities methodology, the work provides close readings of oriental-observer narratives that allowed Americans to critique emerging ideas about identity, history, and nationality as protoindustrialization and consumer culture reshaped society. The book explores how these popular tales expressed cultural self-reflection during a pivotal period when America's resource exploitation and participation in transatlantic trade systems fundamentally altered daily life and social structures, offering valuable insight into how literary genres functioned as tools for processing historical change.
