Literary Culture in Early New England 1620-1730 by Thomas Goddard Wright is a comprehensive analysis of the literary culture that emerged in the early years of colonial America. The book explores the ways in which literature was used to shape and define the cultural identity of the New England colonies, as well as the role that literature played in shaping the political and social landscape of the region.Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, including diaries, letters, sermons, and other literary works, Wright provides a detailed account of the literary trends and movements that emerged in New England during this period. He examines the works of prominent figures such as William Bradford, Anne Bradstreet, and Cotton Mather, as well as lesser-known writers and poets, in order to provide a comprehensive picture of the literary culture of the time.Throughout the book, Wright emphasizes the importance of religion in shaping the literary culture of early New England. He shows how religious themes and motifs were woven into many of the literary works of the period, and how these works were used to reinforce the religious and moral values of the community.Overall, Literary Culture in Early New England 1620-1730 provides a fascinating insight into the literary and cultural history of colonial America. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of American literature, as well as for those interested in the broader social and cultural history of the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
