American Literature in Context from 1865 to 1929 is the perfect companion for readers who want to familiarize themselves with the historical events and literary movements that shaped American literature from the end of the Civil War to the beginning of the Great Depression. Drawing on a range of documents from magazine and newspaper accounts to government reports and important nonfiction, Philip R. Yannella explores the subjects that engaged American writers during this pivotal period and situates major works within history. Topics covered include Civil War memory, the virtual re-enslavement of African-Americans after Reconstruction, poverty and plenty, immigration and migration, social movements aimed at radically changing America, and post-World War I conservative triumphs. Includes a historical timeline, featuring key literary works and historical events.
