The Star Spangled Banner tells the story of how Francis Scott Key wrote the poem after witnessing the American flag still waving over Fort McHenry in Baltimore following the 1812 Battle of Baltimore. Key was inspired to write the poem after seeing the flag withstand bombardment from British ships all night long. The poem was later set to music from a popular song. While it originally had four verses, today only the first verse is commonly sung. In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson designated the song to be played by the military and navy, and in 1939 Congress named it the official national anthem of the United States, a tradition that continues at patriotic and sporting events today.
Samuel Clemens
Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was a famous American author born in 1835 in Florida, Missouri. He grew up along the Mississippi River in Hannibal, Missouri and initially worked as a printer and riverboat pilot. Some of his most notable works include Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Adventures of Tom Sawyer, and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court.

His poems often featured individuals interacting with nature and used metaphors. The document compares Frost's style to Nathaniel Hawthorne as using nature and everyday speech, but contrasts him with Ralph Waldo Emerson who was more romantic and focused on imagination over real life. It concludes by praising Frost as a great example of 20th century poets and mentioning his recitation at JFK's inauguration.

Cooper helped create a sense of American history and culture through novels like The Last of the Mohicans that were set in the early American landscape and dealt with conflicts between settlers and Native Americans. Though his depictions of Native Americans were unrealistic and controversial, Cooper is still considered one of the most important American authors for the way he engaged with themes of national identity in his historical fiction.

Folk Tales[1]
Folk tales are short stories passed down through oral tradition that often teach moral lessons. The Faust legend specifically tells the story of a person who trades their soul to the devil for happiness, with the tale divided into making the deal, feeling regret, and a final confrontation where the devil may win or lose the soul.

Allegory[1]
Moby Dick by Herman Melville is an allegorical novel that represents abstract ideas through characters and events. The larger idea it symbolizes is man's quest for knowledge and understanding that often leads to obsession. The character Captain Ahab's obsessive hunt for the white whale Moby Dick represents mankind's desire to understand the deepest mysteries of life which can become an all-consuming pursuit that brings about ruin.

1) Critical numbers indicate local maximums and minimums, and are found by setting the derivative f'(x) equal to 0.
2) A critical number is a number C where either f'(C) = 0 or f'(C) does not exist.
3) Not all critical points are local extrema - some are points of inflection where the second derivative changes sign.

POEMS by Emily Dickinson
· 1830-1886; one of the two most important figures (the other being Walt Whitman) in establishing the specific identity of AMERICAN POETRY (especially MODERN American poetry)
· from a prominent Amherst, Massachusetts, family (father a lawyer)
· After school (Amherst Academy and a year at the Mount Holyoke Female Seminary), she lived as a RECLUSE, almost never leaving the Dickinson family home.
· She remained close with her family, particularly her brother, and maintained several “friendships” via correspondences, most notably with the Boston writer and critic Thomas Wentworth Higginson, who eventually—POSTHUMOUSLY!—published her poems with the help of another of Emily’s friends, Mabel Todd Loomis.
· Only 7 of her poems were published—anonymously!—during her lifetime. THERE ARE 1,775! Not all of them reached print until 1955!
· eccentric punctuation: especially DASHES indicating emphasis and interruption
· influenced by the English Romantics, especially Keats, and the early Victorian poets, especially Elizabeth Barrett Browning
· a mixture of death, uncompromising truth, and playful humor
· ROMANTIC CHARACTERISTICS:
· sentimental melancholy
· importance/exceptionality of the poet
· the failure of knowledge/reason
· fascination with the grotesque
· mystical imagery
· unorthodox religious interpretation/beliefs
· wish to transcend worldly cares/priorities
· ROMANTIC INVERSIONS: American “Dark” Romanticism (according to literary critic Leslie Fiedler)
· disturbingly falling short of salvation (uncertainty or damnation, etc.)
· mocking the false comforts that sweet, picturesque imagery might provide
QUESTION #11:
Citing examples from her poems, discuss Dickinson’s Dark Romanticism. (3 paragraphs)
Walt Whitman
· 1819-1892; born in West Hills, Long Island, New York
· revolutionized American poetry: the long line, “catalogs,” frank subject matter, “free verse”
· responded to the call in Emerson’s “The Poet” (1842) for an all-encompassing American bard
· persona characteristics: amoral (even seeming to fatalistically excuse the atrocities associated with Manifest Destiny and colonially expansionist drive); representatively omnipresent (Transcendentally pantheistic); “American” universality and commonality represented sexually (as metaphor)
QUESTION #12:
How does both the form of Whitman’s poem and the imagery it uses reflect Emerson’s Transcendentalist call for an “American” poet?
Rebecca Harding Davis
· 1831-1910; born in Washington, Pennsylvania
· had a long career as both a fiction writer and a journalist
· “Life in the Iron-Mills” (1861) made her a literary celebrity; an early American literary example of combining REALISM, NATURALISM, and MUCK-RAKING

American literature (1) Walt Whitman
Walt Whitman was an influential American poet born in 1819 in New York. He self-published his collection of poems titled Leaves of Grass in 1855, which revolutionized American poetry by focusing on everyday sights and sounds and celebrating the human body and material world. The collection grew over multiple editions to include over 400 poems connected by Whitman's philosophy of life and humanity. Two of the most notable poems are "Out of the cradle endlessly rocking" about a bird's song awakening the poetic spirit, and "When Lilacs last in the Dooryard Bloom'd" lamenting the loss of Abraham Lincoln. Whitman's work was heavily influenced by American Romanticism, democracy, nature, and the events

American Literature - Some important points
American literature began as an offshoot of English literature during colonial times. Key early authors included Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson. In the 19th century, transcendentalist authors like Emerson and Thoreau emerged, as did novelists Hawthorne and Melville. Abolitionist authors like Harriet Beecher Stowe and Frederick Douglass also rose to prominence. Into the 20th century, modernist authors like Fitzgerald, Hemingway, and Faulkner captured post-World War I disillusionment, while Stein experimented with style and form. Contemporary literature continues to evolve with diverse voices.

5. charles lamb
Charles Lamb was an English essayist and poet in the late 18th and early 19th centuries best known for his Essays of Elia and the children's book Tales from Shakespeare co-authored with his sister Mary Lamb. Lamb was part of a major literary circle and befriended writers like Samuel Taylor Coleridge and William Hazlitt. Though his poems received little attention, his prose writing, particularly the Essays of Elia published from 1820-1825, were very popular for their personal and conversational tone.

Victorian and Romantic periods of english literature
The Victorian period formally begins in 1837 (the year Victoria became Queen) and ends in 1901 (the year of her death). As a matter of expediency, these dates are sometimes modified slightly. 1830 is usually considered the end of the Romantic period in Britain, and thus makes a convenient starting date for Victorianism. Similarly, since Queen Victoria’s death occurred so soon in the beginning of a new century, the end of the previous century provides a useful closing date for the period. The nature of Romanticism
As a term to cover the most distinctive writers who flourished in the last years of the 18th century and the first decades of the 19th, “Romantic” is indispensable but also a little misleading: there was no self-styled “Romantic movement” at the time, and the great writers of the period did not call themselves Romantics. Not until August Wilhelm von Schlegel’s Vienna lectures of 1808–09 was a clear distinction established between the “organic,” “plastic” qualities of Romantic art and the “mechanical” character of Classicism.
English literature - The Romantic period
William Wordsworth takes a boat out on a lake one summer evening. As he rows across the water, enjoying the natural scenery, a large black peak suddenly emerges from the horizon. It towers over him and seems to pursue his boat, filling him with fear and trembling. He quickly returns to shore and leaves his boat, going home in a grave and serious mood. For many days after, his mind remains in a state of darkness and uncertainty as he ponders the experience and its implications about the mysterious nature of existence.

Nathaniel Hawthorne
Nathaniel Hawthorne was an American novelist who lived from 1804 to 1864. He had an unhappy childhood as his father died when he was young and his mother became reclusive. After college, Hawthorne dedicated himself to writing and reading by secluding himself for 12 years. Many of his stories explored the darker aspects of Puritan history and dealt with themes of intellectual pride, secret sin, and the misuse of science without regard for humanity. His most famous works included The Scarlet Letter, The House of the Seven Gables, and the short stories "Dr. Heidegger's Experiment" and "The Minister's Black Veil."
Edgar Allan Poe
The document summarizes key events in the life of Edgar Allan Poe from 1809 to 1849.

Poe married his cousin Virginia in 1836 but she died of tuberculosis in 1847, which took a toll on him. He died under mysterious circumstances in 1849 at age 40.
Fireside Poetry
The Fireside Poets were a group of 19th century American poets who were the first to achieve popularity in both America and Britain. They included Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, William Cullen Bryant, James Russell Lowell, Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr., and John Greenleaf Whittier. Their works were suitable for recitation and became a source of family entertainment when gathered around the fire, leading to the nickname "Fireside Poets." Through their poetry on topics like abolitionism, they brought important issues to mainstream audiences.
Metaphors
This document defines and provides examples of different types of metaphors, including standard metaphors, extended metaphors, implied metaphors, dead metaphors, similes, personification, metonymy, and synecdoche. It then provides an activity where students must sort concepts into tangible and intangible categories, compare an intangible concept to a tangible one using metaphors, and work in a group to write an extended metaphor for freedom.
Archetypes
The document discusses common archetypes and symbols found across myths and religions, including:
- The hero's journey pattern involving a birth, challenges, death and resurrection. Examples given are Oedipus and Christ.
- Common symbols and their meanings, such as colors (red for blood, blue for spirituality), numbers (3 for unity, 7 for completion), and directions (east for birth, west for death).
- Mythic figures that appear, including temptresses, earth mothers, and the soul mate.
- Common quest archetypes involving restoring fertility to wasted lands, as seen in searches for the Holy Grail or Moby Dick.
Puritan Tradition & Anne Bradstreet
Puritan beliefs centered around the inherent sinful nature of humanity and salvation coming solely through God's grace. They believed living longer meant sinning more, angering God and resulting in worse punishment after death, so the sooner one died, the better. Puritan literature aimed for moral instruction over pleasure and included sermons, poetry, and hymns, with the Bay Psalm Book being the first book printed in America in 1640. Anne Bradstreet was one of the most important early American authors, known for works exploring the struggles of a Puritan wife in colonial New England and writing with ease despite norms that discouraged women from expressing views.
Myth Notes
Myths are traditional stories passed down through generations that explain why the world is the way it is, usually involving supernatural beings. Creation myths specifically explain how the universe, earth, and life began and present the cultural group's views on cosmology. Myths function to instill awe of the universe, explain nature, support social customs, and guide people through life challenges.
Historical Narratives
This document discusses how historical narratives provide insights into interactions between different peoples in America over 400 years ago, before modern electronic media. It explains that historical narratives come in two basic forms - primary sources that present firsthand accounts through documents like letters and diaries, and secondary sources that present indirect knowledge through histories and biographies. Finally, it notes that in colonial times, Native Americans recorded information orally and through symbols for thousands of years, while Europeans reported on explorations and settlements through survivors' tales and adventure stories in letters and journals using vivid details.
Dieterich Edgar Allan Poe
Edgar Allan Poe was an American writer known for his poems and short stories of mystery and the macabre. He had a difficult childhood, being orphaned at a young age. As a young man, he began exhibiting traits that foreshadowed his future success as a writer, such as reciting poetry and falling into romantic daydreams. Though he showed academic promise, he struggled financially as an adult writer and editor. He is now regarded as inventing the detective fiction genre and exploring the human psyche in dark yet poetic stories.
Dieterich Spirituals During Slavery
Spirituals served various purposes during slavery in the United States from 1619 to 1865. They provided coded messages to communicate along the Underground Railroad, inspiration during the struggle for freedom, and expressions of protest against slavery through metaphorical lyrics. Spirituals also affirmed values of community and solidarity among enslaved Africans as a means of preserving their culture and identity.
Dieterich Transcendentalism Basic Concepts
Transcendentalism emphasizes individualism and intuition over conformity, believing each person should follow their own beliefs and find truth through communing with nature rather than obeying authority. It stresses the inherent goodness of humanity, condemns materialism and social pressures that corrupt individuals, and views nature as reflecting an ideal spiritual world where all things come from God.
Dieterich Henry David Thoreau
Henry David Thoreau was a 19th century American writer, philosopher and naturalist. He graduated from Harvard but was fired from teaching for refusing to discipline his students physically. In 1845, he built a cabin at Walden Pond where he lived in isolation for over two years, during which he wrote his famous book Walden. The book detailed his experiment in simple living and self-sufficiency at the pond. He is also known for his essay "Civil Disobedience" where he advocated for individual resistance to an unjust state.
Dieterich Transcendentalism Overview
Transcendentalism is a philosophy that believes we can discover higher truths by relying on our intuition rather than just logic and reason, going beyond our normal senses and experiences. It focuses on simplicity and going above and beyond limitations to access deeper insights. The movement emphasizes intuition over rationality to access deeper truths.
