Description

Explore the connection between early American identity and global perspectives in Enlightenment Orientalism in the American Mind, 1770-1807. Part of the Perspectives on Early America series, this Routledge publication examines how oriental-observer tales helped Americans navigate changing ideas of history and nationality during a period of significant social shifts. This study applies the lens of energy humanities to analyze how early American literature reflected a society undergoing protoindustrialization and rising consumerism. By looking at the genre of the oriental observer, the text investigates how the exploitation of energy resources and participation in the Franco-British world-system changed the daily lives of citizens. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of how these literary tales served as a way for a developing nation to reflect on its own identity and its place within a transforming global landscape.
