The history of American literature is very special in how it would eventually be formed throughout the years of American history. The story is very unique in the sense that if it wasn't for literature and newspaper feeding the literate and revolutionary in the "new world", we may not be what we are today as a nation.
I found it to be amazing that much of the political decent could not have been possible if not for the ability of American literature and various publications to be distributed to the masses. This makes the history of American literature one of the most important aspects (if not the most important) in United States history. What good are revolutionary ideas if they can’t be distributed for others to gain inspiration from? The ability of technological advancement in literature during this time period also played a great task in the development of the nation we live in today. It’s amazing how the function of literature paved the way for much of the advancement in American society during the infancy of our nation, advancements such as the role of women in society and the ability of the common person living in that time period to have an incredibly good chance of becoming literate.
If the pen is truly mightier then the sword, it couldn’t be more apparent then in the development of the United States through American literature expressing revolutionary ideas and ideals throughout the country during a time of oppression.
