America and the sea : a literary history

Open All Close All

http://schema.org/about

http://schema.org/description

  • "This is the first literary history of the United States to explore exclusively the presence of the sea in American writing. A multiauthor work, it covers the periods and genres that make up our national literature as it considers the ubiquity of nautical symbols, images, and figurative language in addition to expressions of the sea experience itself. While this book situates the literature within American history, particularly maritime history, a chapter on hymns, chanteys, and sea songs as well as an annotated portfolio of American seascape art expand and enrich the literary and cultural contexts."
